Memorial to John Clark
Memorial to John Clark
This iron plaque is built into the western wall of the kirkyard of NS4673 : Old Kilpatrick Parish Church, and its inscription is as follows: "Sacred to the memory of John Clark, calico printer, littlemill, 1776, and of his heirs 1829".

On Littlemill and its former industries, see NS4473 : The Auchentorlie Burn and NS4473 : Littlemill Court; the first of those links mentions the print and cotton bleaching works located there.
Old Kilpatrick Parish Church

The church was built in 1812 on more or less the same spot as its predecessor (the latter was a pre-Reformation church; it was of great age, although the precise period in which it was built is unknown).
