Woodilee Village is an enlargement to the town of Lenzie and is adjacent to Kirkintilloch in East Dunbartonshire. It is built on the site of Woodilee Hospital, Lenzie, which was once the largest psychiatric hospital in Scotland. Building work began in the late 2000s and is still in progress. In 2010 the first properties went on sale and in 2011 the first residents moved in.

Schools

All houses and apartments, including the clock tower, to the south of the main Woodilee village road, are zoned to Lenzie Primary and Lenzie Academy. No part of the estate is zoned to Lenzie Moss Primary. Houses to the north of the main Woodilee village road are zoned to Kirkintilloch schools, including Kirkintilloch High School and some of its associated primary schools. This has resulted in an increase in placing requests from parents wishing their children to attend the local schools in Lenzie. [1]
