Dunbartonshire borders [[Perthshire]] to the north, [[Stirlingshire]] to the east, [[Lanarkshire]] and [[Renfrewshire]] to the south, and [[Argyllshire]] to the west. The county covered a similar area to the [[earldom]] and later [[duchy]] of [[Lennox (district)|Lennox]]. The historic county gives its name to two of Scotland's modern [[council area]]s, being [[East Dunbartonshire]] and [[West Dunbartonshire]]. ==Name== [[Image:Scotland Dumbarton Castle bordercropped.jpg|right|thumb|Looking across the [[River Clyde]] towards [[Dumbarton Castle]]]] The town name "[[Dumbarton]]" comes from the [[Scottish Gaelic]] {{lang|gd|Dùn Breatainn}} meaning "fort of the [[Britons (historical)|Britons]]".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/descriptions/entry_page.jsp;jsessionid=4D6D4999541B97B99E16F7023A499772?text_id=106330&word=NULL|title=Visions of Britain}}</ref> Historically, the spelling of the county town and the county were not standardised. By the 18th century the names "County of Dunbarton" and "County of Dumbarton" were used interchangeably.<ref>See for instance ''Crown Lands - Forfeited Estates Act, 1784'' (1784 c. 57) and ''Manning of the Navy Act, 1795'' (1795 c. 29)</ref> The n in "Dunbarton" represents the etymology {{lang|gd|Dùn}} "fort"; the "m" in "Dumbarton" reflects a pronunciation with [[assimilation (phonology)|assimilation]] of {{IPAc-en|n}} to the labial {{IPAc-en|m}}, due to the influence of the neighbouring labial {{IPAc-en|b}} sound.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Millar |first1=Robert McColl |last2=Trask |first2=Larry |title=Trask's Historical Linguistics |date=2015 |publisher=Routledge |isbn=978-1-317-54176-9 |edition=3rd |chapter-url=https://books.google.com/books?id=pWzABgAAQBAJ&pg=PT85 |language=en |chapter=3.2 Assimilation and dissimilation }}</ref> Different county bodies used the two spellings: the Dunbarton County Constabulary were formed in 1857 by the [[Commissioners of Supply]] for the County of Dunbarton.<ref>''Edinburgh Gazette'', Issue 6736, published 15 September 1857</ref> In 1890 elected county councils were established under the [[Local Government (Scotland) Act 1889]], which referred to the area as the "County of Dumbarton". However, one of the county council's first acts was to adopt an official seal, for which it chose to use the spelling "Dunbarton", with an "n", as being closer to the name's etymology, despite protests from some residents who maintained that the spelling with an "m" was better established in general usage.<ref>{{cite news |title=Dumbarton County Council |url=https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/ |access-date=18 February 2023 |work=Kirkintilloch Herald |date=2 April 1890 |page=5}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=Dumbarton, not Dunbarton |url=https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/ |access-date=18 February 2023 |work=Lennox Herald |date=11 April 1891 |location=Dumbarton |page=1}}</ref> The town of Dumbarton continued to use the spelling with an "m".

The shire of Dumbarton was initially similar in area to the earldom of [[The Lennox|Lennox]], covering an area north of the [[River Clyde]] and around [[Loch Lomond]]. In the thirteenth century an area north-east of Loch Lomond was transferred to [[Stirlingshire]], whilst the two parishes of [[Kirkintilloch]] and [[Cumbernauld]] were transferred from Stirlingshire to Dunbartonshire, despite not adjoining the rest of the county.<ref name=caledonia>{{cite book |last1=Chalmers |first1=George |title=Caledonia |date=1824 |publisher=Cadell and Davis |location=London |page=865 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=jcU_AAAAcAAJ&pg=PA865 |access-date=18 February 2023}}</ref> The changes were reversed in 1504, when Kirkintilloch and Cumbernauld were restored to Stirlingshire and the area north-east of Loch Lomond came back to Dunbartonshire, but the change was short-lived, being reverted again in 1509.<ref name=caledonia/> [[File:Dumbarton Sheriff Court - geograph.org.uk - 2033514.jpg|thumb|[[Dumbarton Sheriff Court|Dumbarton Sheriff Court and County Buildings]]]] [[Commissioners of Supply]] were established in 1667 to act as the main administrative body for the shire outside the [[burghs]]. Elected county councils were established in 1890 under the [[Local Government (Scotland) Act 1889]], taking most of the functions of the commissioners (which were eventually abolished in 1930). The burgh of [[Dumbarton]] was deemed capable of managing its own affairs and so was excluded from the administrative area of the county council, although the county council still chose to base itself in that town.<ref>Local Government (Scotland) Act 1889, c. 50</ref> The county council held its first meeting on 22 May 1890 at the [[Dumbarton Sheriff Court|County Buildings]] (which also served as the sheriff court) on Church Street in Dumbarton.<ref>{{cite news |title=Dumbartonshire County Council |url=https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/ |access-date=19 February 2023 |work=Lennox Herald |date=15 February 1890 |location=Dumbarton |page=4}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=County Council |url=https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/ |access-date=19 February 2023 |work=Lennox Herald |date=24 May 1890 |location=Dumbarton |page=1}}</ref> The 1889 act also led to a review of boundaries; in the case of Dunbartonshire the parish of [[New Kilpatrick]] had previously straddled Dunbartonshire and [[Stirlingshire]], with the town of [[Milngavie]] being in the part of the parish in Stirlingshire.

The county council was based at the old county buildings at the sheriff court until 1965, when it moved to new [[County Buildings, Dumbarton|County Buildings]] on Garshake Road in Dumbarton.

Strathclyde was divided into nineteen [[districts of Scotland|districts]], with Dunbartonshire being divided between [[Dumbarton District|Dumbarton]], [[Bearsden and Milngavie]], [[Clydebank]], [[Cumbernauld and Kilsyth (district)|Cumbernauld and Kilsyth]] and [[Strathkelvin]] Districts. The combined area of these five districts continued to be used as a [[lieutenancy areas of Scotland|lieutenancy area]].<ref>{{cite legislation UK|type=si|si=The Lord-Lieutenants Order 1975|year=1975|number=428|accessdate=19 February 2023}}</ref> Local government in Scotland was reorganised again in 1996, with the regions and districts abolished and replaced with unitary [[council area]]s. Two of the new council areas include Dunbartonshire in their name. Since 1996 the area of the pre-1975 county of Dunbartonshire has been split between four [[council area]]s: *[[East Dunbartonshire]] Council, with its administrative headquarters at [[Kirkintilloch]] (also includes parts of the pre-1975 counties of Stirlingshire and Lanarkshire). *[[West Dunbartonshire]] Council, with its administrative centre at [[Dumbarton]]. *[[Argyll and Bute]] Council (which took over the [[Helensburgh and Lomond]] part of Dumbarton District). *[[North Lanarkshire]] (for the [[Cumbernauld]] area). The [[Lord Lieutenant of Dunbartonshire|Dunbartonshire lieutenancy area]] continues to be defined in terms of the five districts that existed between 1975 and 1996, with the only change made to the lieutenancy areas at the time of the 1996 local government reorganisation being that the [[Chryston]] area of Strathkelvin district was transferred to the [[Lanarkshire]] lieutenancy.<ref>{{cite legislation UK|type=si|si=The Lord-Lieutenants (Scotland) Order 1996|year=1996|number=731|accessdate=19 February 2023}}</ref> The historic boundaries of Dunbartonshire are still used for land registration purposes, being a [[registration county]].<ref name="ros.gov.uk">{{cite web |url=http://www.ros.gov.uk/pdfs/map.pdf |title=Archived copy |access-date=2013-09-26 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130928060517/http://www.ros.gov.uk/pdfs/map.pdf |archive-date=28 September 2013 |df=dmy-all }}</ref> ==Geography== [[Image:Lomond islands.jpg|thumb|left|245px|Loch Lomond as seen from the summit of the island of [[Inchcailloch]] to [[Torrinch]], [[Creinch]], [[Inchmurrin]] and [[Ben Bowie]]]] The northern half of the county is sparsely populated and dominated by [[Loch Lomond]] (now part of [[Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park]]), which it shares with Stirlingshire. There are many islands in the loch which form part of the county, the most notable being [[Island I Vow]], [[Tarbet Isle]], [[Inchlonaig]], [[Inchconnachan]], [[Inchmoan]], [[Inchtavannach]], [[Fraoch Eilean]], [[Inchgalbraith]], [[Torrinch]], [[Creinch]], [[Inchmurrin]] and [[Aber Isle]]. The much smaller [[Geal Loch]], [[Lochan Beinn Damhain]], [[Lochan Strath Dubh-uisge]], and [[Loch Sloy]] can also be found here. The area is also home to [[Ben Vorlich, Loch Lomond|Ben Vorlich]], the highest point of Dunbartonshire at 943 m (3,094 ft) and the 229th tallest mountain in Scotland. [[Image:Ben_Vorlich_from_Ben_Vane.jpg|thumb|right|245px|Ben Vorlich, the tallest mountain in Dunbartonshire]] South-western Dunbartonshire has a long coastline along [[Loch Long]], culminating in the [[Rosneath peninsula]] which is separated from the main body of the county by [[Gare Loch]]. Both of these lead into the [[Firth of Clyde]] which forms the southern border. The area east of the river Leven is dominated geographically by the [[Kilpatrick Hills]] which also contains a number of small lochs and reservoirs. In the far south-east the county encompasses a portion of the [[Greater Glasgow]] conurbation. [[Image:Duncolm.jpg|thumb|right|245px|Duncolm, tallest peak in the Kilpatrick Hills]] The Cumbernauld exclave is largely flat and heavily urbanised. ===Boundaries and the Cumbernauld exclave=== The county retained a large [[exclave]] situated {{convert|5|mi|km|0|abbr=off|spell=on}} east of the main part of the county despite the boundary changes in the 1890s elsewhere in Scotland, consisting of the [[civil parish]]es of [[Kirkintilloch]] and [[Cumbernauld]], between [[Stirlingshire]] and [[Lanarkshire]]. This area had originally been part of Stirlingshire, but had been annexed to Dunbarton in the reign of [[David II of Scotland|David II]] at the request of [[Malcolm Fleming, Earl of Wigtown]], the owner of the land, who was also [[Sheriff]] of [[Dumbarton]].<ref>[http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.asp?compid=43430#s5 Cumbernauld, ''A Topographical Dictionary of Scotland'' (1846)(British History Online)]</ref> The exclave was dealt with in 19th century legislation as greater administrative duties were given to the counties. The [[Police (Scotland) Act 1857]] established police forces throughout Scotland. Section 70 of the act allowed for the parishes to be transferred to the jurisdiction of either [[Stirlingshire]] or [[Lanarkshire]] [[Constabulary]] on resolution of two-thirds of the [[Commissioners of Supply]] for the County of Dumbarton.<ref>Police (Scotland) Act 1857 (c. 72) s. 70</ref> Similar provisions allowing for the transfer of the area for all purposes were included in the County General Assessment (Scotland) Act 1868.<ref>1868 (C.82) s.6</ref> No such resolution was made, and the two parishes remained in Dunbartonshire. Section 40 of the [[Roads and Bridges (Scotland) Act 1878]] ([[41 & 42 Vict.]] c. 51) provided that for the purposes of that act all detached parts of counties should be placed in the county by which they were surrounded, or with which they had the longest boundary.<ref>Roads and Bridges (Scotland) Act 1878 ([[41 & 42 Vict.]] c. 51), s.40</ref> Accordingly, [[Cumbernauld]] and [[Kirkintilloch]] came under the control of the Stirlingshire Road Board. It was originally anticipated that the area would be transferred to Stirlingshire for all other purposes by the boundary commissioners proposed by the [[Local Government (Scotland) Act 1889|Local Government Bill of 1889]].<ref name="hansard">{{cite web |url=https://api.parliament.uk/historic-hansard/lords/1889/aug/06/local-government-scotland-bill-no-179 |title=Local Government (Scotland) Bill No.179 (HL Deb 06 August 1889 vol 339 cc447-531) |access-date=2008-06-30 |work=Hansard, Lords Sitting |date=1889-08-06 }}</ref> However, a clause was inserted in the bill that stated "the parishes of Cumbernauld and Kirkintilloch, including the [[burgh]]s and police burghs situate therein, shall for the purposes of this Act, be considered as forming part of the county of Dumbarton". The clause was vigorously opposed by the Stirlingshire Commissioners of Supply as they had incurred considerable expense in maintaining the roads of the two parishes. The Act as passed provided that the Dunbartonshire County Council was to financially compensate Stirlingshire on the transfer of road powers.<ref>Local Government (Scotland) Act 1889 1889 (c. 50) s.40</ref> {{Clear}} ==Transport== [[File:Firth of Clyde at Kilcreggan, with Waverley passing Loch Long.jpg|thumb|The [[Firth of Clyde]] at Kilcreggan, with [[PS Waverley|PS ''Waverley'']] approaching across [[w:Loch Long|Loch Long]]]] The [[West Highland Line]] runs through the county connecting Glasgow to [[Oban]] and [[Fort William, Highland|Fort William]] and is popular with tourist due to its scenic view of the Highlands. The [[North Clyde line]] serves the towns of the [[Vale of Leven]], and many suburban and commuter lines serve those parts of Dunbartonshire that form part of the Glasgow conurbation. Two lines run west–east through the Cumbernauld exclave, linking this area to Glasgow and Falkirk. Various ferries criss-cross Loch Lomond, linking some of the towns along its banks. The Rosneath peninsula is connected by a ferry from Kilcreggan to [[Gourock]] in Renfrewshire. ==Settlements== ===Towns=== *[[Alexandria, West Dunbartonshire|Alexandria]] *[[Balloch, West Dunbartonshire|Balloch]] *[[Clydebank]] *[[Dumbarton]] *[[Helensburgh]] <gallery mode="packed"> File:Colquhoun_Square,_showing_plinths_for_the_Outdoor_Museum.jpg|Colquhoun Square, Helensburgh File:Dumbarton High Street - geograph.org.uk - 366277.jpg|Dumbarton town centre </gallery> ===Villages and hamlets=== {{div col|colwidth=20em}} *[[Aldochlay]] *[[Ardlui]] *[[Ardpeaton]] *[[Arrochar, Argyll|Arrochar]] *[[Auchenvennel]] *[[Bellsmyre]] *[[Blairglas]] *[[Blairvadach]] *[[Bonhill]] *[[Bowling, West Dunbartonshire|Bowling]] *[[Caldarvan]] *[[Cardross, Argyll|Cardross]] *[[Clynder]] *[[Cove, Argyll and Bute|Cove]] *[[Craigendoran]] *[[Croftamie]] *[[Dalreoch]] *[[Dumfin]] *[[Edentaggart]] *[[Garelochhead]] *[[Gartocharn]] *[[Hardgate]] *[[Inverbeg]] *[[Inveruglas]] *[[Jamestown, West Dunbartonshire|Jamestown]] *[[Kilcreggan]] *[[Luss]] *[[Milton, West Dunbartonshire|Milton]] *[[Old Kilpatrick]] *[[Portincaple]] *[[Portkil]] *[[Rahane]] *[[Renton, West Dunbartonshire|Renton]] *[[Rhu]] *[[Rosneath]] *[[Shandon, Argyll and Bute|Shandon]] *[[Shantron]] *[[Stuckgowan]] *[[Tarbet, Argyll|Tarbet]] {{div col end}} <gallery mode="packed" class="center"> File:Church, Bonhill - geograph.org.uk - 1479526.jpg|Bonhill File:Kilcreggan in winter.jpg|Kilcreggan File:Colourful cottages at Luss - geograph.org.uk - 1358192.jpg|Luss File:Rhu Parish Church.jpg|Rhu </gallery> ===Glasgow conurbation=== {{div col|colwidth=20em}} *[[Bearsden]]{{efn|Small part in [[Stirlingshire]]}} *[[Blairdardie]] *[[Clydebank]] *[[Dalmuir]] *[[Drumchapel]] *[[Drumry]] *[[Duntocher]] *[[Faifley]] *[[Old Kilpatrick|Kilpatrick]] *[[Knightswood]]{{efn|Partly in [[Renfrewshire (historic)|Renfrewshire]]}} *[[Linnvale]] *[[Milngavie]]{{efn|Mostly in [[Stirlingshire]]}} *[[Netherton, Glasgow|Netherton]] *[[Old Drumchapel]] *[[Temple, Glasgow|Temple]] *[[Whitecrook]] {{div col end}} {{notelist}} <gallery mode="packed" class="center"> File:Clydebank Town Hall - geograph.org.uk - 429807.jpg|Clydebank Town Hall File:NewKilpatrickParishChurch.JPG|New Kilpatrick Parish Church, Bearsden </gallery> ===Cumbernauld exclave=== {{div col|colwidth=20em}} *[[Abronhill]] *[[Auchinstarry]] *[[Balloch, Cumbernauld|Balloch]] *[[Blackwood, Cumbernauld|Blackwood]] *[[Carbrain]] *[[Craigmarloch]] *[[Croy, North Lanarkshire|Croy]] *[[Cumbernauld]] *[[Dullatur]] *[[Greenfaulds]] *[[Kildrum]] *[[Kirkintilloch]] *[[Lenzie]] *[[Lenziemill]] *[[Merkland]] *[[Seafar]] *[[Smithstone, Cumbernauld|Smithstone]] *[[Twechar]] {{div col end}} <gallery mode="packed" class="center"> File:South Carbrain.jpg|Carbrain File:Cumbernauld Town Centre - geograph.org.uk - 207206.jpg|Cumbernauld File:Kirkintilloch01.jpg|Kirkintilloch </gallery> ==Civil parishes== [[File:DUMBARTONSHIRE Civil Parish map.jpg|thumb|right|300px| Dumbartonshire Civil Parish map c. 1854 Boundaries are outlined in red]] {{div col|colwidth=20em}} *[[Arrochar, Argyll and Bute|Arrochar]] *[[Bonhill]] *[[Cardross, Argyll|Cardross]] *[[Craigrownie]] *[[Cumbernauld]] *[[Dalreoch]] *[[Dumbarton]] *[[Kilmaronock]] *[[Kirkintilloch]] *[[Luss]] *[[New Kilpatrick]] *[[Old Kilpatrick]] *[[Renton, West Dunbartonshire|Renton]] *[[Rhu]] *[[Rosneath]] *[[Rossdhu]] {{div col end}} {{Clear}} == Military connections == During the expansion of the [[Volunteer Force]], the military presence in Dunbartonshire was widely expanded.{{fact|date=September 2022}} ==References== {{reflist}} {{commons category|Dumbartonshire}} ==Bibliography== * [https://books.google.com/books?id=vmsJAAAAQAAJ&pg=PA33 "The Book of Dumbartonshire"], [[John Scott Keltie|J.
