When the Crown established royal burghs the burgesses had to examine the march stones every year and report that all was well or ill according to what they found. The checking of Lanark’s March Stones has taken place every year since 1140. Although the Lanimer celebrations consist of nearly a week-long series of events, Lanimer Day itself falls on the Thursday between 6 and 12 June each year
