Castlecary information


Castlecary
The M80 above the arches turns to point approximately north up the hill towards Stirling. The railway cuts across the picture left to right. The canal, shown by a line of trees, crosses the picture above it with the white roofs of the CMS buildings at between them at the site of the old railway station. The Red Burn (SUDS) ponds can be seen at the bottom of the picture. Cumbernauld's Wardpark East can be seen at the bottom left hand corner. The bridge north of the viaduct leads to Allandale and bridges further north separate Banknock at the top left from Haggs.

Castlecary (/ˌkɑːsəlˈkɛəri/) is a small historic village in North Lanarkshire, Scotland, directly adjacent to the border with Falkirk.[1] It has long been associated with infrastructure, being adjacent to a bridged river, a Roman fort and roads, a nationwide canal, a Victorian railway viaduct, and a modern motorway. Castlecary is close to the town of Cumbernauld but like Dullatur and Luggiebank is not officially part of the town. Around 1725, the barony of Castlecary, with a population of just seventeen families, was disjoined from the parish of Falkirk, and annexed to Cumbernauld quoad sacra.[2] Castlecary is also near Allandale which, though in the Falkirk council area, was built for Castlecary fireclay workers.
