In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Carnbroe like this:
Carnbroe, an estate, with a mansion, and a village on the N border of Bothwell parish, Lanarkshire. The mansion stands on North Calder Water, near the Caledonian railway, 1¼ mile NNE of Bellshill. The estate is rich in coal and ironstone, and has within it collieries and iron-works. The village adjoins Calder in Old Monkland parish, and forms part of Calder Iron-works. Pop. (1861) 904, (1871) 873, (l881) 739.
