A derelict East Kilbride church could soon make way for new affordable homes. ‌

Plans have been submitted to South Lanarkshire Council to demolish former South Parish Church on Baird Hill and replace it with two four-storey blocks containing 38 one and two bedroom apartments. ‌

The church, which closed in January 2024 due to structural problems, has since fallen into disrepair. ‌
