Netherlee House
My suggestion is to add this.

Everything around Netherlee is named for Netherlee House.

The Netherlee Post Office building is on the site of the original house.

The Netherlee Braes have been wrapped into Lin Park.

There probably should be some information about Netherlee House here, given its significance to Netherlee. I'm not sure what's being referred to as the Netherlee Braes though. Did you meant the Netherton Braes? If so, I don't believe those are part of Linn Park, although it's not impossible. Eastwood Park and strabane (talk) 16:13, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

RLHF Journal Vol.12 (2003/4) 1 3. Antiquities in Eastern Renfrewshire Dr. Thomas C. Welsh

This is a personal view of the antiquities of the former Eastwood District area, edited from a much wider list of landscape features compiled over the 1966 - 1983 period. Although the author moved south in 1975, he took it upon himself to updated and circulate this list to the relevant Council authorities from that year onwards. The overall work was not confined by political boundaries and similar lists were made up for surrounding areas such as East Kilbride.

With regards to the map posted, Lee farm appears to be possibly the old name of Overlee Farm, next to Overlee Park (not Netherlee). Eastwood Park and strabane (talk) 16:17, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
