Moodiesburn is a suburb in North Lanarkshire, Scotland. It is situated on the A80 road, between Glasgow and Cumbernauld.
The suburb includes a community centre and library, a miners' welfare club (the Auchengeich Miners Welfare), a multi-denominational school (Glenmanor Primary), a denominational school (St. Michael's Primary), a Church of Scotland parish church, an RC chapel, and an independent evangelical church called New Beginnings that meets in the community centre. There is also a public house (the Silver Larch), and a Knights of Saint Columba social club.
Moodiesburn House Hotel - previously the site of the Bedlay Dowager House - was closed in late 2007 and its entire contents put up for auction. In March 2008 the function hall of the hotel was vandalised and set on fire.[2]
Bedlay Cemetery is the local cemetery for Moodiesburn. The nearby Bedlay Castle has stood since the late 16th century, and is believed to house ghostly activity among locals.[3] The expansive woodland surrounding Stoneyetts Hospital (a Victorian era psychiatric hospital demolished in 1992) has also been cited as a location for ghostly occurences, with a number of reported sightings and claims that the hospital siren has sounded several times at night since its demolition.[4]
Moodiesburn is also home to a number of youth football teams, including Moodiesburn Red Star and Brigend Boys club.
