Clydebank

Clydebank (Scottish Gaelic: Bruach Chluaidh) is a town in West Dunbartonshire, Scotland. Situated on the north bank of the River Clyde, it borders the village of Old Kilpatrick (with Bowling and Milton beyond) to the west, and the Yoker and Drumchapel areas of the adjacent City of Glasgow immediately to the east. Depending on the definition of the town's boundaries, the suburban areas of Duntocher, Faifley and Hardgate either surround Clydebank to the north, or are its northern outskirts, with the Kilpatrick Hills beyond. Historically part of Dunbartonshire and founded as a police burgh on 18 November 1886, Clydebank is part of the registration County of Dumbarton, the Dunbartonshire Crown Lieutenancy area, and the wider urban area of Greater Glasgow. A native of Clydebank is locally known as a 'Bankie', as distinct from a 'Glaswegian' (Glasgow itself is fiercely regarded as a separate place by locals, despite Clydebank being contiguous with the Glasgow urban area) - whilst the term forms the nickname for the town's football team Clydebank FC who are known as 'The Bankies'.
