Earnock Estate

Earnock Estate is a private, residential area in Hamilton, South Lanarkshire, Scotland, which is located just east of High Earnock and south of Hillhouse. The area was developed in the 1960s and is home to some of the oldest buildings in the area.

Almost all amenities with Earnock Estate are located on Wellhall Road – the main road running through the estate that links all parts of the neighbourhood.

There are three shops within the Earnock area: Fillipetti's, an Aldi supermarket and an Esso petrol station.

Fillipetti's is a small convenience shop situated at 115 Wellhall Road and offers a large, compared to other convenience shops, selection of goods; confectionery, newspapers, and other such standard items are on offer. As well as these the shop also has a large behind-counter alcohol section, and a small homewares and gifts section that stocks items such as vases, cards and seasonal gifts. The shop is well known to have an issue with underage drinkers attempting to gain alcohol from the store.

The Aldi store, also on Wellhall Road, opened in Winter 2006 and was built on the site of a former Safeway store. The Safeway store was closed and relocated to the centre of Hamilton when the Safeway chain was bought over by Morrisons. Aldi stocks the normal produce associated with a supermarket as well as offering a number of non-food items each week. These are described as "specials" and are changed twice a week – items can range from such things as tool kits to walking boots to consumer electronics.

An Esso petrol station is located on Wellhall Road. There is a small convenience store and cash machine – a fee of £1.75 is made for every withdrawal from this ATM.

Within Earnock the only take-away is the Golden Fry Chip Shop; it is located in the same block as the Fillipetti's store. It is a very clean and modern chip shop, even offering Internet and Mobile ordering.

Earnock's only public house, The Avon, was located on Wellhall Road. It was demolished in 2016 to make way for a new residential development.
