Welcome to the Whats On Guide to Loch Lomond and Dunbartonshire
Prior to 1975, the county was also used for local government with its own county council, its administrative centre being at the town of Dumbarton. Under the 1973 Local Government (Scotland) Act, the county council was abolished and administration was transferred to the newly formed Strathclyde council region. When Strathclyde was itself dissolved in 1996, the term “Dunbartonshire” resurfaced in local administration in the names of the new council areas of East Dunbartonshire and West Dunbartonshire.
