About the project

Airdrie is an historic market town that has made important contributions to banking, engineering, weaving and world football. The legacy of its rich history can be seen in the built environment, with the town centre a designated Conservation Area boasting numerous Listed and other attractive heritage buildings. Much of the town’s history has however been lost or is little known.

Rediscovering Airdrie is funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, Historic Environment Scotland and North Lanarkshire Council.

Rediscovering Airdrie is made possible with The National Lottery Heritage Fund. Thanks to National Lottery players, we have been able to protect, promote and celebrate the places and people of Airdrie.

Historic Environment Scotland (HES) is the lead public body charged with caring for, protecting and promoting the historic environment. HES is also the lead on delivering Scotland’s first strategy for the historic environment, Our Place in Time.
