Lesmahagow
Lesmahagow (; 〔(Scots Language Centre: Scottish Place Names in Scots )〕 or ''Lesmahagae'',〔(The Online Scots Dictionary )〕 (スコットランド・ゲール語:Lios MoChuda)) is a small town on the edge of moorland, near Lanark in the central belt of Scotland. Lesmahagow was also a Civil Parish.〔The Imperial gazetteer of Scotland. 1854. Vol.II (GORDON-ZETLAND) by Rev. John Marius Wilson. pp.324-325 http://archive.org/stream/imperialgazettee02wilsuoft#page/324/mode/2up〕 It is also known as Abbey Green or the Gow. ==Etymology==
The name means "Enclosure (meaning a walled area, like a monastery or fort) of St Machutus". The saint was born in Wales and may originally have been known as "Mahagw" prior to emigrating to Brittany where he became known by the Latinised form of the name and also as "St Malo". It is also possible that the first syllable may mean "garden" rather than "monastery", although Mac an Tailleir (2003) believes the former was altered from the latter in Gaelic.〔("Chapter 1 - Derivation of Name.." ) lesmahagow.com.
