Chryston

Chryston is a village in North Lanarkshire, around 7 miles (11 km) east of Glasgow, in Scotland.

William Barclay, himself a school teacher, reported the low pay of his profession in the Old Statistical Account.

[9] One gazetteer, Samuel Lewis, from around 1846, describes a recently established library.

[10] The same publication also stated that Chyston was a quoad sacra parish including the villages of Mollinsburn, Moodiesburn, Muirhead and the hamlet of Auchinloch.

[13] Groome's Gazetteer gives historical statistics including population.
