Chapelhall Eye

Chapelhall is based just outside the town of Airdrie in North Lanarkshire, Scotland. Over the years Chapelhall has developed itself from being a small mining village to now being the largest village in Monklands.

Chapelhall is well situated just off the M8 motorway 14 miles from Glasgow City centre and around 30 miles from Edinburgh City centre

Chapelhall is also only one mile away from Eurocentral, linking us with the rest of Scotland, Britain and Europe.

Chapelhall, lies on the opposite side of the North Calder Water from Calderbank and has very similar history. Iron working and coal mining were once prominent - with three blast furnaces working in the early 1830's.  The old village also had a quarry, a brickworks and a bakery.   The first curator of Kew Gardens, William Aiton,  began work as a gardener in Woodhall House near Chapelhall.

The Chapelhall Eye gives us all the chance to talk about and see Old Chapelhall plus the modern Chapelhall. We have old pictures as well as modern pictures and you can also send us your own pictures so we can add them to the website.
