Slamannan (Scottish Gaelic: Sliabh Mhanainn) is a village in the south of the Falkirk council area in Central Scotland. It is 4.6 miles (7.4 km) south-west of Falkirk, 6.0 miles (9.7 km) east of Cumbernauld and 7.1 miles (11.4 km) north-east of Airdrie.
Slamannan is located at the cross of the B803 and B8022 roads, near the banks of the River Avon, close to the border between Falkirk and North Lanarkshire councils. Slamannan had a population of around 1,360 residents.[2] In 1755 the population was recorded as 1209.[3] Fifty years later the population was around the 1000 in the Parish of Slamanan[4] (although elsewhere in the same volume the usual spelling is used). The 19th-century parish church can accommodate upwards of 700 people.
