What is recorded here
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Motherwell as Cross (period Unknown). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Motherwell is traditionally associated with Saint Mary and is linked to healing practices, particularly for women's ailments. The name derives from "Mary's well," reflecting a common medieval tradition of dedicating holy wells to the Virgin Mary, who was often invoked for protection and fertility.
