Trusted Protection in Larkhall
Police Scotland has not published local priorities for Larkhall on the sources we use, so the clearest starting point is what lies on the map. Within 5km there are East Station Industrial Estate, Netherton Industrial Estate, Orbiston Business Park and Wishaw Battery, an energy site. Fir Park Stadium and two Motherwell theatres draw crowds, and University Hospital Wishaw sits in the same radius. Industrial units, an energy installation and event venues each need a different approach.
