Back in the 1950s Cumbernauld was designated as one of Scotland’s new towns and grew from a tiny village into a city. Today, your new home retains its modernist past with brave architecture, public artworks, town underpasses and brutalist buildings.
The town centre is home to the first ever shopping centre in the UK, the Cumbernauld Centre and is packed with shops and eateries as well as a sports centre, schools, college and places of worship. Town planners included 50% green space and four nature reserves when designing the town, and it has received a clutch of awards including a Beautiful Scotland Award for Best Small City and a Garden for Life Bio-Diversity Award.
