Easter Moffat House
I do not know exactly when the house was built, or who the original architect was, but probably in 1838 for William Waddell, 4th of Easter Moffat (1789-1876), who was an Edinburgh lawyer and Writer to the Signet, and his wife Margaret Fogo Campbell (1799-1867), daughter of Archibald Campbell of Melfort in Argyll. It was restored in 1912 by John Maurice Arthur of the architectural practice of George Arthur and Son, and in 1922 the parkland was developed into a golf course. See http://www.emgc.org.uk/

Ex-Plains
Plains railway station, on the line between Airdrie and Bathgate, was closed to passengers on 18 June 1951. The track between Bathgate and a point west of Plains was taken up about 1982 but the former station platform remained in situ, albeit overgrown, for another twenty years, being demolished only as part of the preparatory works for the re-opening of the line as an electrified railway at the end of 2010. There were hopes that Plains might once again have a railway station but it was not to be. Indeed, even the former level crossing at the end of Station Road was abolished, the road on the south side of the railway being diverted to a new bridge several hundred yards to the west.
