More about Motherwell Scotland
Motherwell (Tobar na M?har in Gaelic) is a large
burgh in North Lanarkshire, Scotland, between Glasgow
and Edinburgh.
Motherwell was noted as the steel production capital of
Scotland, nicknamed Steelopolis, with its skyline
dominated by the water tower and three cooling towers of
the Ravenscraig steel plant which closed in 1992. The
Ravenscraig plant had one of the longest continuous
casting (concast), hot rolling, steel production
facilities in the world before it was decomissioned. The
closure of Ravenscraig signalled the end of large scale
steel making in Scotland. In the past decade, Motherwell
has recovered from the high unemployment and economic
decline brought about by this collapse of heavy
industry. A number of call centres and business parks
such as Strathclyde Business Park have set up in the
region. Large employers include William Grant & Sons.
Motherwell is the headquarters for both North
Lanarkshire Council, which is one of Scotland's biggest
Local Authorities, and of Strathclyde Police "N"
division and they cover an overall population of 327,000
(93,000 in Motherwell and Wishaw) people throughout
North Lanarkshire over 183 square miles.
Both are also responsible for sections of the main
arterial routes which intersect North Lanarkshire and
these are: the M74, which runs North from the M6 into
Glasgow along the west side of Motherwell, the M8, which
runs West to East from West of Glasgow through to
Edinburgh and cuts through the middle of North
Lanarkshire from Bargeddie to Shotts, the M73, which
runs North/South from Baillieston to the A80(M) south of
Cumbernauld, and finally the A80(M), which runs from
Stepps to Denny (Stirlingshire) North/South and runs
through Cumbernauld town centre.
The biggest Fun Park in Scotland is based within
Strathclyde Park, which features many sports facilities,
as well as having woodland and grass areas ideal for
visitors including bird-watchers, anglers, or people out
for a quiet, leisurely time, and also features an
excavated site of a Roman mosaic, although this has been
covered to protect it. The park itself has also gained a
reputation as a meeting place for gay encounters and
also boy racers however local police patrols try to
dissuade this element from the park.
Motherwell railway station - the penultimate stop on the
West Coast Main Line before Glasgow.Other attractions
and sites within Motherwell District are Carfin
Pilgrimage Centre and Carfin Grotto. The Grotto was
built in nearby Carfin, in the 1920s, mainly by local
residents and miners and was originally for the benefit
of the Catholic Community, holding Processions and
Pilgrimages most Sundays throughout the year and, in its
heyday, saw many thousands attend open-air masses.
Others who regularly use the Grotto are from the large
Lithuanian and Polish communities who had settled in the
area, although many travelled from around Britain to
attend. The one disappointment for the local Catholic
community was when Pope John Paul II visited Scotland in
the 1980's and had hoped that he would visit the only
Catholic Shrine in the country but were rewarded only
with a "fly-past" by his helicopter.
It has a football club Motherwell F.C., which was
established in 1886. Known as the "Steelmen" because of
the history of steel making in the area they are
currently managed by former England international Terry
Butcher. Butcher made his home in Scotland after playing
for Rangers Football Club.
One of the town's most well-known "sons" is James Keir
Hardie (1856 - 1915) who was born a few miles outside of
Motherwell and is one of the founders of the modern
Labour Party.
