Glenboig In Wartime

A Memory of Glenboig.

I can remember, as a small child, soldiers being given tea and scones by my granny at 96 Coatbridge Road in Ramoan.
This would have been between 1942 and 1945 and the soldiers were part of a detachment based nearby.
Their base was a couple of Nissan huts situated at the corner of Muirdyke Road, (known locally as "The T-Road"), and Coatbridge Road.
I would be grateful for any information anybody can share with me on these soldiers eg regiment; members; purpose and dates of service in that location.

Thank you
