—1;—;IMONKLAND, NEW1807, when a dividend first began to be made, the grossrevenue amounted to £4725 ; and in 1814 it was £5087,although the navigation during this year was stoppedfor eleven weeks, principally by the severe frost, butpartly on account <strong>of</strong> necessary repairs. From 1814 or1815 up to the year 1825 the traffic continued withoutmuch variation, but about the last-mentioned date agreat impulse was given to it by the establishment <strong>of</strong>ironworks in the district <strong>of</strong> Monkland. When theproject <strong>of</strong> opening up that district by railways to Glasgowand Kirkintilloch was first started, it created muchalarm in the Canal Company, lest the traffic shouldbe entirely diverted from their navigation to the newchannels. The alarm was not unfounded, but it onlyinduced the company to reduce their dues to about onethird<strong>of</strong> the rate which had been charged up till thattime, and also to expend large sums in making suchimprovements on the canal, and on things connected withit, as seemed fitted to facilitate its traffic. One <strong>of</strong> theseimprovements was the making <strong>of</strong> additional reservoirsin the parish <strong>of</strong> Shotts, all uniting in the river Calder,which flows into the canal at Woodhall, near Holytown,thereby insuring an increased supply <strong>of</strong> water. Anotlierimprovement was the forming <strong>of</strong> extensive loading basinsand wharves at Gartsherrie and Dundyvan, for thereception <strong>of</strong> traffic from the mineral railways in thevicinity. A third improvement was the making <strong>of</strong> newlocks at Blackhill, near Glasgow, <strong>of</strong> such character asto excel all works <strong>of</strong> their class in Great Britain. Theselocks now comprise two entire sets <strong>of</strong> four double lockseach, either set being worked independently <strong>of</strong> the otherand they were formed at an expense <strong>of</strong> upwards <strong>of</strong>£30,000. In 1850 the increase <strong>of</strong> trafBc still going on,the supplies <strong>of</strong> water had again fallen short, and eventhe new locks at Blackhill could not pass the boatswithout undue delay. An inclined plane with rails wasnow formed at these locks, 1040 feet in length, and 96feet in total ascent, at an expense <strong>of</strong> £13,500, by whichempty boats are taken up at a saving <strong>of</strong> five-sixths <strong>of</strong>water, and about nine-tenths <strong>of</strong> time. Each boat is conveyedafloat in a caisson, and the traction is done bysteam-power and rope-rolls. The plan is unique, wascontrived by Messrs Leslie & Bateman, and has answeredadmirably. In 1846, under parliamentary sanction, theMonkland Canal became one concern with the Forth andClyde Canal. The purchase price <strong>of</strong> it to Messrs Stirlingand Sons in 1789 is said to have been only £5 per sharebut the purchase price to the Forth and Clyde Companyin 1846 was £3400 per share. As part <strong>of</strong> the ForthAND Clyde navigation, the Monkland Canal was takenover by the Caledonian Railway Company in 1867. Ord.Stir., sh. 31, 1867.Monkland, New, a village and a parish <strong>of</strong> the Middle"Ward, NE Lanarkshire. The village stands IJ mileNNW <strong>of</strong> the post-town, Airdrie, adjoining Glenuiavis,and is the seat <strong>of</strong> the parish church (1777 ; 1200 sittings)and a public school. Pop., with Glenmavis, (1871) 339,(1881) 369.The parish contains also the town <strong>of</strong> Airdme andthe villages <strong>of</strong> Avonhead, East Langrigg, Greengairs,Longriggend, Plains, Eiggend, Eoughrigg, Wattston,West Langrigg, Clarkston, and Glenhoig, with oneeighth<strong>of</strong> Coatdyke. It is bounded N by Kirkintillochand Cumbernauld in Dumbartonshire (detached),E by Slamannau in Stirlingshire and Torphichenin Linlithgowshii-e, SE by Shotts, SAV by Old Jlonkland,and W by Old Monkland and Cadder. Itsutmost length, from E to W, is 9J miles; its utmostbreadth, from N to S, is 5i miles; and its area is 31square miles or 20,117 acres, <strong>of</strong> which 232 are water.Black Loch (^ x 4 mile) lies right on the Stirlingshireborder ; and, issuing from it. North Calder Waterwinds 2| miles south-westward along the Slamannan,Torphichen, and Shotts boundary, till it expands intoHiLLEND Reservoir (10Jx4| furl.), after which itmeanders 5J miles south-westward along all the rest <strong>of</strong>the Shotts boundary, and at Monkland House passes<strong>of</strong>f from this parish on its way to the river Clyde.LiTGGiE Watek, a feeder <strong>of</strong> the Kelvin, flows 6J miles the ecclesiastical parish.46MONKLAND, NEWwestward along the Dumbartonshire border ; but somelittle head-streams <strong>of</strong> the river Aven drain the northeasterncomer <strong>of</strong> New Monkland towards the Firth <strong>of</strong>Forth. Along both the Calder and Luggie the surfacedeclines to less than 300 feet above sea-level ; and thenceit rises very gradually to 577 feet near Gartlee, 672 atKnowehead, 678 at the Hill <strong>of</strong> Drumgray, 763 near LittleDrumbreck, and 771 at Lochend. Though much <strong>of</strong> theparish lies more than 600 feet above the sea, yet the dorsalridge that runs through it from end to end ascends'.fromso broad a base, so gently and continuously, as nowhereto form any height which, properly speaking, can betermed a hill. JIuch <strong>of</strong> the highest grounds is coveredwith moss, and could not be reclaimed except at greatexpense ; but the lower tracts, on the banks <strong>of</strong> thestreams and along the western border, present an agreeablediversity <strong>of</strong> vale and gently-rising ground, and arein a high state <strong>of</strong> cultivation. The soil <strong>of</strong> the arablelands in the eastern and central parts is mossy and latebut that <strong>of</strong> the northern and western divisions is partly<strong>of</strong> a dry character, partly a strong clay. The parish, fora long period, particularly during the Continental war,was famous for its culture <strong>of</strong> flax. In some years asmuch as 800 acres were under this species <strong>of</strong> crop ; butthe welcome advent <strong>of</strong> peace, and still more thecheapness and universal introduction <strong>of</strong> cotton, renderedflax-cultivation here, as elsewhere at that time, unpr<strong>of</strong>itable.The present agriculture <strong>of</strong> the parish has nopeculiar features. Its mining industry, however, asnoticed in our articles Airdrie and Monkland, ispre-eminently great, or almost distinctive. The rocksare partly eruptive, partly carboniferous ; and so farback as the writing <strong>of</strong> the Old Statistical Account, it isstated that ' coal and ironstone are, or may be, found onalmost every farm.' Since then, the working <strong>of</strong> theseminerals has been most extensive, and is still in thecourse <strong>of</strong> rapid increase. The quality is only equalledby the abundance <strong>of</strong> the coal, which in many places isfound in seams from 9 to 10 feet thick. The ironstoneis found both in balls and in seams ; and much <strong>of</strong> it is<strong>of</strong> the valuable kind called blackband, which is so abundantlymixed with coal as to require little addition <strong>of</strong>fuel in the burning. Many <strong>of</strong> the extensive ironworksin the neighbourhood, or even at a distance, particularlythose <strong>of</strong> Calder, Chapelhall, Gartsherrie, Clyde, andCarron, are supplied with ironstone from New Monkland.Limestone also is worked, particularly in thenorthern district, but not to a great extent. Severalmineral springs, too, exist, chiefly <strong>of</strong> the chalybeatekind. The Monkland Well, near Airdrie, is the mostfamous, and at one time enjoyed so high a repute for itsefficacy in the cure <strong>of</strong> scorbutic and other cutaneousdiseases, as well as for complaints in the stomach andeyes, as to be a favourite resort even for the wealthy andfashionable citizens <strong>of</strong> Glasgow and its neighbourhood; but its character as a watering-place has longdeparted from it, both from a falling <strong>of</strong>f—undeserved,it may he—in the reputation <strong>of</strong> the springs, and fromthe lack <strong>of</strong> features <strong>of</strong> rural beauty, which have beenborne down by a network <strong>of</strong> railways and by the onwardmarch <strong>of</strong> a mining and manufacturing population. AlexanderMacdonald, M.P. (1821-81), the miners' advocate,was born at Dalmacouther farm. Mansions, noticedseparately, are AncHiNGRAY and Rochsoles ; and 16proprietors hold each an annual value <strong>of</strong> £500 and upwards,65 <strong>of</strong> between £100 and £500. Including thequoad sacra parishes <strong>of</strong> Airdkie and Flowerhill,with most <strong>of</strong> Clarkston, New Monkland is in thepresbytery <strong>of</strong> Hamilton and the synod <strong>of</strong> Glasgow andAyr ; the living is worth £525. The parish poorhouseaccommodates 155 inmates ; a hospital was built in1881-82 at a cost <strong>of</strong> £1200; and seven public and twoRoman Catholic schools, with total accommodation for1700 children, had (1883) an average attendance <strong>of</strong> 1158,and grants amounting to £SS3, 7s. 4d.

;';MONKLAND, OLDMonkland, Old, a jiarisli <strong>of</strong> tho Middle Ward, NLanarkshii-e. It contains the towns <strong>of</strong> Baillieston, Coatbridge,and Whifflet and Rosehall, with two-thirds <strong>of</strong>Calder, seven-eightlis <strong>of</strong> Coatdyke, and one-seventli <strong>of</strong>ToUcross, as also the villages <strong>of</strong> 13argeddie and Dykehead,Braehead, Broomhouse, Calderbank, Carmylo,Clyde Iron-works, Faskine, Mount Vernon, Swinton,West Maryston, etc. In shape resembling a rudetriangle with northward apex, it is bounded NW byShettleston, Cadder, and New Monkland, NE by NewMonkland, and S by Bothwell, Blantyre, Cambuslang,and Eutherglen. Its utmost length, from E by N toW by S, is 9i miles its utmost breadth is 4g miles ; ;and its area is 17§ square miles or 11,281J acres, <strong>of</strong>which 345| are water. From Monkland House, NorthCaldek Water meanders 10 miles west-south-westwardalong all the Bothwell boundary, till at Daldowie itfalls into the Clyde, which itself curves 4 miles westwardalong all the boundary with Blantyre, Cambuslang,and Rutherglen. Lochend Loch (3^x14 furl.)communicates with Woodend Loch (i x i mile), andthis again with Bishop Loch {Ixi mile), which lies onthe Cadder boundary, and is one <strong>of</strong> the principal reservoirs<strong>of</strong> the Forth and Clyde Canal. The banks <strong>of</strong> allthree are tame, with little or no beauty ; but their waterscontain some large pike. The surface <strong>of</strong> the parish isgenerally flat or gently undulating. Along the Clyde,in the extreme SW, it sinks to 32 feet above sea-leveland thence it rises gradually to 207 feet near MountVernon House, 356 near Westerhouse, 321 at Shawhead,345 near Gartsherrie House, and 360 at Castlespails.Whether the fertility <strong>of</strong> its superficies, or thewealth <strong>of</strong> its mineral treasures be considered. OldMonkland is one <strong>of</strong> the most important and wealthyparishes in Lanarkshire. To quote the writer <strong>of</strong> theOld Statistical Account:— 'A stranger is struck withthe view <strong>of</strong> this parish. It has the appearance <strong>of</strong> animmense garden.' This account, penned nearly acentury since, is still generally true, if we except thefact that improved culture has vastly increased the production<strong>of</strong> the soil, and that the rapid advance <strong>of</strong>population, the enormous progress <strong>of</strong> the mineral trade,and a perfect network <strong>of</strong> railways, have sadly marredthose features <strong>of</strong> rural loveliness for which the districtwas formerly celebrated. Withal, there are few districtswhich combine so much <strong>of</strong> the attributes <strong>of</strong>country-life with the bustle and stir <strong>of</strong> manufactures ;for the soil <strong>of</strong> Old Monkland is dotted at every littledistance with the villas <strong>of</strong> the aristocracy <strong>of</strong> the westerncapital, \vitli the blazing furnaces and tall chimneys <strong>of</strong>the iron and coal works, with belts <strong>of</strong> thriving plantationand clumps <strong>of</strong> old wood, with orchards, grassyholms, or waving grain, and with the homely farmsteadingor lowly dwelling <strong>of</strong> the cottar. From thefacilities <strong>of</strong> obtaining lime and manure, both by canaland railway, a soil— which is naturally fertile—hasbeen improved to the highest degree ; and the yearlyvalue <strong>of</strong> the agricultural produce <strong>of</strong> the arable lands <strong>of</strong>the parish is superior to that <strong>of</strong> an equal extent <strong>of</strong>arable lands in most other parts <strong>of</strong> <strong>Scotland</strong>. The soilhere, on the whole, is much more fertile than the soilabove the coal measures in other parts <strong>of</strong> the country.The arable soil is <strong>of</strong> three kinds. That along theCalder and the Clyde is a strong clay, changed bycultivation into a good loam ; that <strong>of</strong> the middle districtsis a light sand, very fruitful in oats and potatoes ; andthat towards the N is mainly reclaimed bog or otherwisemossy. In the northern district, the coal cropsout, and there are some 1500 acres <strong>of</strong> peat-moss. InOld, as in New, Monkland, flax used to be largelycultivated, some <strong>of</strong> the farmers having each as much asfrom 20 to 30 acres annually under that crop ; but thesystem <strong>of</strong> agriculture now pursued on the best farms isa four-year rotation <strong>of</strong> potatoes or turnips, wheat, hay,and oats, with sometimes one year or two <strong>of</strong> pasture betweenthe hay and the oats.The parish, however, is chiefly remarkable for itsworking <strong>of</strong> coal and iron. In an account <strong>of</strong> it publishedbefore the beginning <strong>of</strong> the present century, oneMONKLAND, OLD'reads : This parish abounds with coal ; and what abenefit it is for Glasgow and its environs to be so amplyprovided with this necessary article ! There are computedto be a greater number <strong>of</strong> colliers here than inany other parish in <strong>Scotland</strong>.' The progress in thecoal-trade, since the period alluded to, has been almostmagical ; and as scarce a year passes without new pitsbeing sunk, while the old ones continue in vigorousoperation, it would seem that scarcely any limits canbe set to the vast aggregate production. The pits havea depth <strong>of</strong> from 30 to 100 fathoms ; and the principalworking seams, according to the New Statistical Accoimt,'are as follow : 1. The Upper coal ; coarse, and seldomworkable ; its average distance above the Ell-coal from14 to 16 fathoms. 2. The Ell or Mossdale coal ; 3 to 4feet thick, <strong>of</strong> inferior estimation in this parish, andgenerally too thin to work ; but in places a thick coal,and <strong>of</strong> excellent quality. 3. The Pyotshaw, or Eoughell; from 3 to 5 feet thick, and from 7 to 10 fathomsbelow the Ell-coal. 4. The Main coal. It <strong>of</strong>ten uniteswith the above, and forms one seam, as at Drumpellierin this parish. These two seams are thus sometimes inactual contact, and in other instances separated by awide interval <strong>of</strong> 6 or 7 fathoms. 5. Humph coalseldom thick enough to bo workable in this parish, andgenerally interlaid with fragments <strong>of</strong> freestone, about10 fathoms below the main coal. 6. Splint-coal ; about4 fathoms below the Humph, and <strong>of</strong> very superiorquality. It varies from 2 to 5 feet in thickness, and ismostly used for smelting iron. This seam, when <strong>of</strong>any considerable thickness, is justly esteemed, whengot by the proprietors here, a great prize. 7. Littlecoal ; always below splint, the distance varying from 3fathoms to 6 feet. It is from 3 to 3J feet in thickness,and is a free, sulphury coal <strong>of</strong> inferior quality. 8. TheVh'tue-weU or Sour-milk coal, from 2 to 4 feet thick,occurs from 26 to 28 fathoms below the splint. 9. TheEiltongue coal lies 22 fathoms below the Virtue-well,and, like it, is from 2 to 4 feet in thickness. 10. TheDrumgray coal lies 6 fathoms below the Eiltongue, andperhaps from 60 to 100 fathoms above the first or upperband <strong>of</strong> limestone. It is seldom more than 18 or 20inches thick. There are, besides these 10 seams, about23 smaller seams between them, none <strong>of</strong> which are <strong>of</strong>workable thickness. The total thickness <strong>of</strong> the coalmeasuresabove the lime may be about 775 feet.' Thesame account adds : This large and important coalfield'is much intersected with dikes, and a knowledge<strong>of</strong> these is a knowledge <strong>of</strong> the strata, and <strong>of</strong> the mannerin which they are affected by them.Still more than to its coal, however, is the parish <strong>of</strong>Old Monkland, in recent times, indebted to its ironstoneand iron-works ; although it is proper to mentionthat the ore for the supply <strong>of</strong> the latter is, to a greatextent, drawn from New Monkland. The introduction<strong>of</strong> the hot air blast (1828), the increasing demand foriron for railway and other purposes, but, above all, theabundant possession <strong>of</strong> the most valuable <strong>of</strong> all the ironmetals—the blackband—which contains so much coalas nearly to burn itself—are the main causes which havecontributed to the almost unparalleled advance <strong>of</strong> OldMonkland in population and prosperity. To the burning<strong>of</strong> ironstone were added, in 1830 and the followingyears, works and machinery for the manufacture <strong>of</strong>malleable iron ; and these have already risen to comparewith the pig-ironworks, in the proportion <strong>of</strong> about 30to 100 in the yearly value <strong>of</strong> their produce. Everywhereare heard the brattling <strong>of</strong> machinery, the sonorousstroke <strong>of</strong> mighty hammers, and the hissing and clanking<strong>of</strong> the steam-engine ; and the flames which perpetuallybelch from the craters <strong>of</strong> its numerous furnaces,and for miles around light np the country on the darkestnights, have not inappropriately earned for Old Monklandthe title <strong>of</strong> the Land <strong>of</strong> ' Fire.' Fortunes have herebeen realised in the iron trade with a rapidity onlyequalled by the sudden and princely gains <strong>of</strong> the adventurerswho sailed with Pizarro to Peru. It is understood,for example, that the pr<strong>of</strong>its <strong>of</strong> a single establishmentin this line during the year 1840, were nearly £60,000;47
