Woodilee Village is an enlargement to the town of Lenzie in the Kirkintilloch area. The local authority is East Dunbartonshire.
The area is built on the site of Woodilee Hospital, Lenzie, which was once the largest psychiatric hospital in Scotland. Building work began in the late 2000s. In 2010 the first properties went on sale and in 2011 the first residents moved in. The site is almost complete now but building continues in nearby areas e.g. close to Waterside and Fauldhead.
Stoneyetts Drive shares its name with the now-defunct Stoneyetts Hospital, which was linked with Woodilee and Gartloch hospitals under the Board of Management for Glasgow North Eastern Mental Hospitals.
