What is "kildrum"

Kildrum was the first area to be constructed in Cumbernauld new town. The main road is in the shape of an arc with residential streets leading from it. Inside the arc are ex-corporation houses and better quality, mostly private, housing on the outside. The street names of Kildrum are taken from places associated with Robert Burns.

Other facilities are Cumbernauld High School, primary school, special school, health centre, YMCA, four shops, hairdressers, chemist, three churches/chapels, Salvation Army.

The town centre and Carbrain lie to the west of Kildrum. To the north is Seafar, to the east Cumbernauld Park and to the south and Cumbernauld Glen.
