Dumbarton is a Royal Burgh (town) in Clydeside, Scotland. Dumbarton is in West Dunbartonshire Council Area.

The town does has some attractions, notably the castle, which is on a neighborhoodive hill like Edinburgh and Stirling castles, but has also attracted some unfavourable reviews: "Dumbarton is a brutal concrete sprawl, fulfilling every last hellish cliche about post-war planning and architecture" - so says the 1994 edition of The Rough Guide to Scotland.

The Denny Tank Museum is also worth a visit, but there is not a great deal to be seen in the modern town centre. The town could be comfortably explored as a day trip from Glasgow.

The population is just over 20,000. You may have seen the town on Al Jazeera television in Scotland as the set for the soap opera River City, a northern version of Eastenders. Whisky blending and bonded storage is a major industry in the town. The bonded warehouses can be seen as you enter the town from the east.
