Stamperland
Stamperland is a district of the small suburban town of Clarkston, East Renfrewshire, Scotland. The area's close proximity to Glasgow effectively makes it a suburb of the city, though it remains administratively separate. Adjoining districts are Netherlee to the north and Giffnock to the west; 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 1246th best area in which to buy a home in the UK, according to a 2007 survey. Narrowly beating the town of Shettleston.
Stamperland has its own pipe band "Stamperland Pipe Band" who are currently the RSPBA Champion of Champions for Grade 3A, and the European Champions.
