NHS Lanarkshire has officially completed the purchase of the Airdrie farmland site which will become the site of the new Monklands Hospital
Health board officials announced today that the organisation is now the owner of the 161.5 acres at Wester Moffat where the proposed hospital – currently in the planning and design stages – is to be built.
They describe the landmark moment as “an important step in the project to provide a replacement University Hospital Monklands”, in place of the four-decade-old existing building at Monkscourt Avenue.
