Tunnock's factory
Tunnock's is a family firm based in Uddingston.
The factory is situated alongside Old Mill Road; its front wall is decorated with a large image of a caramel wafer, and a clockface which has an image of a teacake at its centre; these are shown in detail here: Image
The low building on the left is called "The Anvil Inn".
The photo was not taken with Geograph in mind; for a less cluttered view, see Image
[Despite the sign on the factory, the firm's own products are always labelled "Tunnock's", with the apostrophe, so I've used that spelling here.]

Uddingston Cross
Looking along Main Street at its junction with Bellshill Road.
Until the early 1970's when the M74 bypassed Uddingston, this was the A74 to Glasgow.

Main Street, Uddingston
The view is superficially similar to another contributor's picture of the Main Street (Image), but the present photograph was taken from a point about 500 metres further to the north. The people near the middle of the picture are standing beside the junction with Gardenside Street. The view is from the junction with Lower Millgate.
My thanks to John M, who pointed out that parts of the building near the centre of the picture, on the far side of Gardenside Street, where the people are standing, was used as a drill hall in the First World War. John also supplied the following useful Canmore link with further details: https://canmore.org.uk/site/333024/uddingston-163-main-street-drill-hall
