Old Airdrie offers a unique glimpse into the town's rich history. This collection features photographs and images of Stirling Street, Graham Street, South Bridge Street, and other notable streets in Central Airdrie, as well as the town's football club and railway heritage. The book also explores areas on the outskirts of Airdrie, including Rawyards, Clarkston, and Drumgelloch. Among its many interesting features are historic tram photos, a picture of Airdrie's sewage works from 1935, and a stunning image of Arranview villa, designed by Alexander 'Greek' Thomson. Originally published in 1994, Old Airdrie has been reprinted several times, demonstrating its enduring popularity. This book provides a fascinating mix of town centre and outskirts, offering a glimpse into the history and development of Airdrie over time.
