The Janet Hamilton Memorial Fountain, located in West End Park, Coatbridge, Scotland, honors the life and contributions of Janet Hamilton, a poet and essayist born in Shotts in October 1795. This monument, dedicated in 1880, highlights Hamilton's legacy and serves as a tribute to women's literary achievements.
Initiated by the Glasgow Women's Library and Women's History Scotland, the fountain is part of the broader Women of Scotland project, which aims to map and celebrate memorials dedicated to women across the country. The project has received support from organizations such as Girlguiding Scotland, fostering public engagement and awareness of women's history in Scotland.
