Coatbridge a village, in the late quoad sacra parish of Gartsherrie, parish of Old Monkland, Middle ward of county Lanark, 1 mile (N. W.) from Airdrie; containing 1599 inhabitants. This is a very thriving place, which has more than doubled in extent and population within the last fifteen years, owing to the extension of the iron trade in the district, and to its being in the vicinity of valuable coal-mines; the Dundyvan and Summerlee iron-works in the neighbourhood are conducted on a large scale, and afford employment to a great part of the population. The village is on the road from Airdrie to Glasgow; and the Monkland canal also affords facilities of communication with the adjacent towns. A post-office has been established here, and there is a place of worship for members of the Free Church”.

At the turn of the last century Coatbridge was the eight largest town in Scotland. It was formed by the amalgamation of a number of local villages: Old Monkland and Kirkshaws, Coatbridge, Coatdyke, Dundyvan, Gartsherrie, Langloan and Whifflet. The area around Coatbridge was described in the 1799 Statistical Account as an “immense garden” and it was not until the 1830s that the character of the district began to change from a rural landscape of small hamlets and farmhouses to a crowded industrial town.

The industry which transformed Coatbridge was the iron industry. In 1811 Old Monkland parish, which included Coatbridge, was recorded as having less than 6000 inhabitants. By the mid 1800’s the Iron industry was predominant in the town and when it achieved Burgh status in 1885 it was known as “the Iron Burgh” and its population had increased to around 25,000. As it grew, its landscape changed from a country area to a crowded industrial town. Today, the population is now estimated at over 48,000. The present-day street layout of the town centre was largely influenced by the planning of the Baird family, owners of one of the town’s largest ironworks. Coatbridge was the eighth largest town in Scotland in 1911. Old Monkland Parish as described in Pigot’s & co’s national commercial directory 1854. This is perhaps one of the most productive and beautiful parishes in Lanarkshire. It is well enclosed, cultivated and finely planted with forests and fruit trees and to a stranger the resemblance is that of an immense garden, embellished with numerous seats and villas principally belonging to the merchants of Glasgow.
