Situated in Rutherglen Road is the old Gorbals burying-ground. Up till the opening of the Southern Necropolis in Oatlands district, more than half-a-century ago, this was the only "God's Acre" on the south side. It is now closed as a place of sepulture. The Southern Necropolis has tripled its size since it was devised by the late Mr. Colin Sharp M'Laws, a merchant, and son-in-law of Bailie Gilmour of Oatlands
At the south western edge of Castlemilk next to a small farm is a little early 19th century graveyard which is fascinating. There is another interesting one in the village of Carmunnock less than a mile further up the road.
where exactly is the one in Castlemilk?
I think I know the one... is it the one beside the farm on carmunnock Rd, just at the roundabout... its quite near to Linn cemetary... Mid Netherton i think the area's called?
