Meikle Earnock is a medium sized suburb in the south of Hamilton, Scotland.

Until recently, Meikle Earnock consisted mainly of 1960s council housing until the building of the Torhead Farm private housing development during the past 5 years, changing the character and demographics of the area enormously.

Meikle Earnock has a nature trail, and a multi-denominational Primary school.

The town council promised to safeguard the tree line north of Swisscott Avenue prior to the new builds in the 1970s.
