Hi Kathryn Have you checked http://www.scotlandsplaces.gov.uk/ Look at the 1798 Horse tax lists , there is a Greenhead but nothing else that close to it A search brings up not one mention of a Greenhlad +Cambusnethan and even a search for just Greenhlad finds nothing at all What is the source of your place name?

Hi, 'Greenhead' in Cambusnethan Parish is the name of a very old 'fermtoun' (farm toun) , now long gone but shown on the pre 1900 Ordnance Survey maps. It was sited in what is now 'Greenhead Road' in Wishaw ( at the North Eastern end of the Town, between Cambusnethan Street and Stewarton Street, on the western side ). The site is now under 1930's housing, but is remembered in the name of the Cemetery opposite, and the road itself. It was very close to the Victorian 'Old Parish' Church site, and the early ( now demolished ) Parish School. Google maps if searched for Cambusnethan Old Parish Church should show the area ( esp. in 'Satellite' view ). Hope this helps ...
