Airdrie North (ward)
Electoral ward in North Lanarkshire, Scotland
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Airdrie North is one of the twenty-one wards used to elect members of North Lanarkshire Council.[2] It elects four councillors and covers northern and eastern parts of Airdrie (Clarkston, Drumgelloch, Holehills and Thrashbush neighbourhoods) plus the outlying villages of Caldercruix, Wattston, Plains and Glenmavis. Established in 2007, a boundary review in 2017 resulted in a very minor change (the loss of a few streets in Burnfoot). In 2019, the ward's population was 20,137.[3]
