Legend has it that night watchmen kept guard against bodysnatchers from here.
The chimney is still intact but unfortunately the roof is not.

New Monkland Parish Kirk
The kirk and kirkyard are at Glenmavis, a mile or so from Airdrie. Originally built in about 1650, a single-storey building with a short steeple, the kirk was heightened in 1777, making the old steeple look a bit odd. Or was it? The Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historic Monuments of Scotland questions the alleged antiquity of the steeple, saying that its construction is similar to the rest of the 1777 stonework. Its stone used to be blackened by pollution from local heavy industry, earning it the nickname, 'The Auld Grey Kirk on the hill' but with the improvement in air quality the sandstone is reverting to a more natural colour.
