Westfield is an area of the town of Cumbernauld in Scotland. Westfield is a popular residential area originally built by Cumbernauld Development Corporation in the late 1970s and early 1980s (construction began 1975). It comprises a residential area and a large industrial estate. Historically there was a farm at Westfield as shown on Roy's map of the Lowlands and the 1st 25 inch Ordnance Survey Map of Scotland. It is located near Condorrat and Broadwood Stadium, home of Clyde FC. Historically, there were two local primary schools, St Francis of Assisi Primary School and Westfield Primary School.

The new street is named Netherinch Way.
