   Did you know Bellshill was surrounded by collieries?

   • Bellshill was to be surrounded by collieries. Although none are named on our map, we do have lots of the housing – miners’ rows – provided by the mine-owners to accommodate their workforce. Some of the largest coal producers in Lanarkshire had pits here. William Baird & Co, of Gartsherrie, opened the Bothwell Park Colliery at Fallside in 1879.

   What was life like in Bellshill in 1914?

   • A large number of Lithuanians, escaping poverty and persecution, came to the Bellshill area and, by 1914, possibly as many as 5,000 had settled in the area. Many of them worked as miners where the pay was much better than they had been used to, but mines were notoriously dangerous places to work and they shared in the accidents and tragedies.

   Is Bellshill a tram line?

   • The line also serves as the boundary between North and South Lanarkshire with Bellshill being within North Lanarkshire. Tramways came to Bellshill in 1913, but there is no trace of tramlines on our map because, in 1931, the Lanarkshire Traction Company put buses on their old tram routes and the tracks were lifted.

   Why is Bellshill called Cross Gates?

   • This village was known as Crossgates as there was a tollgate there, as well as an inn where travellers could have refreshment. By about 1820, the village had grown in importance and acquired the name of Bellshill. One of the roads of present day Bellshill is named Cross Gates to recall its historic roots.

   Does Bellshill have a railway station?

   • By 1879, Bellshill had two railway stations – one on the London & North Eastern Railway (LNER), and the other on the London Midland & Scottish Railway (LMSR). The LNER line closed in 1951 and, thus, only one station remains. With the electrification of the ’Hamilton Circle’ in 1974, the station continues to have a busy regular passenger service.
