Glenhove Road flats, Cumbernauld, 1963
Cumbernauld was one of the generation of new towns of the 1960s, very new at the time of this visit, which was made as a student study tour. This rather drear canyon is part of one of the main pedestrian routes through the Carbrain section of the town.

Kildrum Parish Church, Cumbernauld, 1963
One of two churches commissioned for the new town of Cumbernauld by the Church of Scotland, architect Alan Reiach, it opened in 1962. As can be seen the works were still not complete at the time of the visit. It was accorded category B Listing in 2000. See http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6424830 for a view of the interior.

Kildrum Parish Church, Cumbernauld, 1964
Interior view looking towards the communion table. The cross behind this is installed in the garden outside the church, rather than inside the church. The design by Alan Reiach clearly shows the Scandinavian influences that were much favoured at the period. Opened in 1962, Listed Category B in 2000.

Lye Brae (B8054), Cumbernauld
In the late 1960s, this was the A73 in an expanding Cumbernauld about 1 mile before it joined the A80. Around 1970, the A73 bypassed Cumbernauld entirely.
