Carluke parish church, which belonged to Lesmahagow Priory, was dedicated to St Andrew, but there was an earlier dedication to St Luag or Maluag. Fragments remain of the 14th or 15th c church, which measured 90' x 24'. In ruins by 1650, it was repaired, and a belfry added in 1715. This church was replaced in 1799 by the present parish church, and was dismantled early in the 19th century.
