Lanarkshire Lamington and Wandel Parish
[Note] "The church may probably be referred to the reign of Saint David, or to that of his successor, King Malcolm the Maiden, when Lambin flourished, from whom this parish derived its name. The church stood near the southern extremity of the parish on the north bank of the Lamington burn where it flows into the Clyde. A neighbouring spring bears the name of Saint Ininas Well, indicating probably that the church was dedicated to Saint Ninian the Apostle of the Southern Picts. or perhaps to Saint Inan a confessor in Scotland, whose feast was kept on the 18th of August." _ (Origines Parochiales Scotiae._)
"There are many fine springs in this parish. The most celebrated is that dedicated toSt. Ninian, on the left bank of Lamingtoune burn above the village". _(New Stat Act [Statistical Account])
