- Clydebank is a town in West Dunbartonshire, in the Central Lowlands of Scotland. Situated on the north bank of the River Clyde, Clydebank borders Dumbarton, the town with which it was combined to form West Dunbartonshire, as well as the town of Milngavie in East Dunbartonshire, and the Yoker and Drumchapel districts of the adjacent City of Glasgow. Clydebank is part of the registration county of Dumbarton, the Dunbartonshire Crown lieutenancy area, and the Office of National Statistics urban area Greater Glasgow. Clydebank was founded as a police burgh on 18 November 1886. Thomson's Ship Builders (1871) and Beardmores (1860 Clyde Navigation Trust) where among the first shipyards in the town. These yards eventually became some of the most important ship building yards in the 20th century in the region in and around Glasgow. John Brown & Company – shipbuilders for the Cunard Line – being a fine example. Additionally, the American Singer Corporation opened between 1884 and 1885 had the honour of housing the largest clock face in the world. Singer was the site of an important strike in March-April 1911, during which its 11,000 workers stopped working. In 1941 a large part of the town was destroyed in the Clydebank Blitz, as well as close by Maryhill in Glasgow. Clydebank is found within the historical boundaries of the ancient Kingdom of Strathclyde, the parish of Old Kilpatrick (12th cent) and the Mormaerdom of Lennox. The town has a large shopping centre which is divided in two by the Forth and Clyde Canal which runs through the town. The town is also a place of learning, culture and nightlife. The popular Scottish band Wet Wet Wet formed in Clydebank in 1982.
