Dunbartonshire is an historic county of Scotland. (For more information about the ancient counties of the UK, see the historic counties page and the place types page.)

From The Topographical, Statistical, and Historical Gazetteer of Scotland, 1847:

Dumbartonshire - or more properly Dunbartonshire - a small county in the west of Scotland; forming what was anciently known as the Lennox.

It is bounded on the west by Loch Long and Argyleshire; on the north by Perthshire; on the east by Stirlingshire and Lanark; and by the river Clyde on the south.

For beautiful and varied scenery, this county is scarcely surpassed in Scotland. It is, indeed, mountainous and uneven, but enriched with many fruitful valleys, and watered by numerous streams, among which the Leven glides calmly along until it falls into the Clyde at Dumbarton.

County town: Dumbarton
