Dumbarton District

Dumbarton District was a local government area in West Dunbartonshire, Scotland, identified for administrative purposes from 1975 to 1996. It encompassed towns like Dumbarton, Clydebank, and surrounding communities, with Dumbarton serving as the administrative center. The district managed local services such as education, housing, and transportation for residents. In 1996, it was replaced by a single council area, West Dunbartonshire, which now handles local governance across the region. The district's history reflects Scotland's evolving local government structure, balancing administrative efficiency with community identity.
