Overtoun Park is a small pocket of peaceful parkland containing B-listed cast iron bandstand as well as its cutting edge BMX tracks. The park is named after industrialist Lord Overtoun, a.k.a John Campbell White, who bestowed the land to the Royal Burgh of Rutherglen.

The Friends of Overtoun Park are a voluntary community group aiming  to improve the facilities in the park and to encourage more people to visit the park by hosting events and family fun days. ​

The park has been further enhanced with the success of Grow 73, securing £12,000 Tesco Bags of Help funding to create the innovative Ruglen Ropewalk in Overtoun Park
