Uddingston was located in the parish of Bothwell until parishes were abolished in 1975. Its population in 2001 (the last census available) was 5,576. A brief but interesting description can be found at Scottish Places.

Uddingston should not be confused with Uddington, a much smaller village further south in the former parish of Douglas.
