Harthill is a small village in North Lanarkshire, Scotland, sitting on the eastern edge of the central belt where the M8 and M73 motorways meet. Its roadside location on the boundary with West Lothian puts it roughly between Shotts and Bathgate, making it a convenient commuter spot for people working in Glasgow or Edinburgh.

Historically the village grew up around coal and shale industries and still shows that mining-era character alongside more modern housing and local amenities. Today it retains a village feel with community groups, green spaces and views across the surrounding lowlands, while the transport links have shaped a mixed local economy of services and commuting residents.
