Introducing Lanarkshire

Glasgow's sprawl has meant that satellite towns like East Kilbride, Hamilton, Motherwell, Coatbridge and Airdrie have been swallowed by the city. Lanarkshire's biggest attraction is the birthplace museum of David Livingstone in Blantyre, although the Clyde Valley's scenic tangle of foliage, wildlife and waterfalls is another draw.

On the riverbank is the World Heritage Site of New Lanark, a fascinating renovation of a 19th-century cotton mill and the houses of the workers who ran it.
