There is a Cadder near Bishopbriggs. Have a look at this link

That might give you the answer you're looking for.
Good luck

Looks like "Gargell" to me.

I have seen reference to "Gargell, Old Monkland parish". Also the Glasgow Herald, 13 Jan 1875 has an article about miners' houses

"I was able, during the hours of daylight on Monday, to visit Gargell, Gartcloss, Rosehall, Greenend, Calder, Faskin and Woodhall ...... I would not care to have any great stake depending upon my ability to indicate the exact locale of Gargell. This only I may say, that to reach it we pass through Gartsherrie ..... Gargell is on the contrary extremely small, and on the whole an unpleasant place ...."

I think it was linked to the Baird Ironworks in the area.

Have been checking old Scottish maps but, as yet, unable to  locate Gargell.

I can find the places listed above - Gartcloss to Woodhall - on an 1859 map but not Gargell.

Could it be Gartgill which is between Gartsherrie and Gartcosh? see http://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/#zoom=17&lat=55.8794&lon=-4.0512&layers=5&b=1

I've been wondering if it might be Gartgill. The article I posted mentions thatched cottages and there's a Thatch Row at Gartgill.
