Airdrie
Airdrie is a former industrial town in Larnarkshire.
The industrial heyday of the small town of Airdrie was the 19th century, when coal mining and cotton milling were the major industries, alongside others such as engineering and oil-shale extraction. Residential replaced industry as the town's main land use in the latter half of the 20th century, as it became popular with commuters working in Glasgow, 11 miles to the east.
