Did the “Beast of Birkenshaw” ever truly reside here? Birkenshaw. A seemingly quiet village nestled in North Lanarkshire, east of Glasgow. It sits close to Uddingston, Tannochside, and Viewpark. Birkenshaw may appear unassuming at first glance. Yet, its name echoes with a dark chapter of history, forever linked to the serial killer Peter Manuel. Birkenshaw is largely residential. The Birkenshaw Trading Estate on Rannoch Road offers a variety of stores. DIY enthusiasts, electrical appliance shoppers, and furniture hunters can all find something here. Some even consider Birkenshaw a part of Viewpark. This places it within the sprawling Greater Glasgow conurbation. However, the village’s peaceful facade masks a sinister past. The murders committed by Peter Manuel, known as the “Beast of Birkenshaw”, cast a long shadow over this quiet community. His crimes brought notoriety to the village, a stark contrast to its otherwise ordinary existence.
