Chapelhall is a village outside the town of Airdrie in North Lanarkshire, Scotland. However, with house building this distinction between Airdrie and Chapelhall is being eroded. Established as a small mining village in the 19th century, it now has population of around 6,000. Chapelhall is well situated just off the M8 motorway east of Glasgow city centre and around west of Edinburgh. Chapelhall is also near to many of Lanarkshire's main towns, such as Bellshill , Coatbridge , Motherwell , Hamilton and Cumbernauld , as well as being around away from Airdrie town centre. The Eurocentral freight village/industrial estate is just a mile or so away and employs people from around Lanarkshire, Glasgow and West Lothian. The rail-freight village links with Grangemouth docks away, ( England to the south and beyond to mainland Europe).
Chapelhall lies on the opposite side of the North Calder Water from Calderbank and has very similar history. Iron working and coal mining were once prominent - with three blast furnaces working in the early 1830s. The old village also had a quarry, a brickworks and a bakery. The first curator of Kew Gardens, William Aiton, began work as a gardener in Woodhall House near Chapelhall.
