AIRDRIE HOUSE Airdrie House estate was owned and occupied by the Hamilton family for nearly 300 years. The Hamilton reign came to an end in 1749. In 1769 the Aitchisons bought the estate for £5,400 that the Alexanders later inherited. In 1887 Sir John Wilson bought the estate and it was to be the home of the Wilsons until it became the local maternity hospital in 1919. This closed in 1962 and was demolished in 1964 to make way for Monklands General Hospital that opened in 1977.
