California, Falkirk history
Nineteenth century
California grew on the common muir of Whitesiderigg between Gardrum Burn and Redding Muir. Throughout the 18th century the area was grazing land for cattle coming from the south on the way to the Falkirk Tryst. The settlement emerged in the 19th century as a result of intensive coal mining.
Twentieth century
In 1918, accounts of living conditions in California were presented by the Stirling Miners’ Union to the Royal Commission on Housing which was critical of housing in East Stirlingshire pit villages. The village ash-pits were cleaned monthly and the mineral railway, which ran through the village, was also used as a drain and sewer. The conditions described in these reports contributed to the provision of new housing in the 1930s.
Present day
California is mainly residential and contains California Primary School which was built in 1914 for miners’ children. Falkirk Council has tried to rebrand California as ‘The Sunshine Village’
