023; 029; 030; 031; 035; 036 | Strathavon parish is an extensive district, which is drained by the Upper Avon and its tributary streams. This district obtained its name from the Celtic Strath, a valley, and Avon, a river which runs through it; so that Strathavon signifies the valley of the Avon. By the Scoto-Saxon settlers, it was called Avondale according to the genius of their speech Chalmers "Avondale is bounded on the north by the Parishes of Glassford, and East Kilbride; on the west by Loudoun, Galston, and Sorn; on the south by Muirkirk and Lesmahagow; and on the east by Lesmahagow, Stonehouse and part of Glassford". " The parish is not infrequently named Strathaven or Straven; but Avondale is the proper name. Dale seems to be more descriptive of the face of the Country than Strath. There is a considerable town in the parish named Strathaven; so that now Strathaven is the name uniformly applied to the town, and Avondale to the Parish". New Stat [Statistical] Acct [Account] |
