Stamperland

Stamperland

Stamperland is a settlement within East Renfrewshire, Scotland. A former village, Stamperland's close proximity to Glasgow effectively makes it a suburb of the city, though remains administratively separate. Adjoining districts are Netherlee to the north and Clarkston to the south; it is also bordered by Clarkston Road to the west and the White Cart Water to the east. It is served by the Glasgow Central to East Kilbride line through Clarkston Station.

The area is mainly housing, but there is a small group of local shops located at the junction of Clarkston Road and Stamperland Gardens. Also at this location is Stamperland Parish Church (Church of Scotland). Other local facilities include a social club,bowling and tennis clubs and a gun club.

Also nearby is the large Overlee Park and a small barbers at the top of the train station exit ramp.

Stamperland was voted the 1245th best area in the UK to buy a home in, according to a 2007 survey.
