Bogside is a hamlet 2 miles north-east of Wishaw in North Lanarkshire, Scotland, on the border of South Lanarkshire.
The hamlet is situated on two main roads, A73 and A721, so many of Central Scotland's communities can be accessed from there. It contains only a few houses, and a motorstore.
In 2019 it was recognised as being among the 10 healthiest places to live in the UK, according to research by Liverpool University.[1]
