Ravenscraig is a village and new town, located in North Lanarkshire, Scotland, around 1+12 miles (2.5 kilometres) east of Motherwell. Ravenscraig was formerly the site of Ravenscraig steelworks; once the largest hot strip steel mill in western Europe, the steelworks closed in 1992, and is now almost totally demolished.

After over two decades of lying derelict, the empty land was redeveloped in the 2010s, with new houses and services being built on a large scale. The main contributors to this project were Wilson Bowden Developments Ltd, Scottish Enterprise and Tata Steel Europe.[1]
