The area of East Kilbride was inhabited as far back as the Neolithic

grew and a small village was developed of 900 inhabitants. In 1930 this changed
and the industrialisation of Scotland led to the city of Glasgow suffering a
housing shortage, by the end of the Second World War Glasgow has sustained
major bomb damage and there was a call for more housing to be constructed in the
area. East Kilbride was among the first “new town” to be built up and allow for
more housing construction projects to be put in place.
