The B8058 (former B7058) towards Clarkston

The B7058 linked the A73 with itself round the eastern side of the Lanarkshire town of Airdrie. It was created in the late 1920s by taking over the eastern half of the B801 and an unclassified road to the south of the A8 (current A89). It was therefore quickly pushed out of zone by the rerouting of the A8 onto the new Glasgow and Edinburgh Road in the early 1930s.

The exact date at which the route was renumbered is unclear. The OS Ten Mile Maps show the route as the B7058 up to the 1944 edition, with the 1946 edition being the first to label the route as the B8058. A short extension beyond the A73 to meet the B799 (now the B802) is first shown in 1939. However, larger scale maps, with revision dates from 1938-40 all label the route as the B8058. It is therefore possible that the Ten Mile Map was not updated as quickly as it should have been, and that the route was indeed renumbered when, or soon after the A8 moved.
