About Cumbernauld Village

Cumbernauld Village, part of the modern town of Cumbernauld in North Lanarkshire, boasts a rich history dating back to pre-medieval times, featuring a Roman settlement near the Antonine Wall. The village evolved significantly, particularly after the Comyn family established their chapel in the late 12th century. Notably, in 1500, the community sought permission to create their own cemetery due to the impact of the Black Death, leading to the use of land adjacent to the chapel for burials. Today, Cumbernauld Village retains its historical character while being an area of interest for planning applications, particularly those related to heritage preservation and community development.
