Fernhill is a residential neighbourhood in the Scottish town of Rutherglen in South Lanarkshire; it is situated south of the River Clyde and borders the Rutherglen neighbourhoods of High Burnside to the north and Cathkin to the east, the Glasgow district of Castlemilk to the west, and the open lands of Fernbrae Meadows (formerly Blairbeth Golf Club which closed in 2015)[2][3] to the south. Its location on a steep incline which is part of the Cathkin Braes range of hills offers panoramic views over the south and eastern parts of Greater Glasgow.[4]
Fernhill is within the Rutherglen South ward of South Lanarkshire Council[5] which is also the extent of the neighbourhood community policing zone;[6][7] local councillors include the experienced politician Robert Brown.[8]
