Bargeddie
Bargeddie (Scottish Gaelic: Bàrr Geadaidh) is a small town in North Lanarkshire, Scotland, east of the junction of the M73 and M8 motorways, 2 miles (3.2 km) west of Coatbridge town centre. A location in the same area is named in Timothy Pont's map of 1595, but it appears to be originally spelt as Balgedy.
