East Dunbartonshire

East Dunbartonshire is a county area in west central Scotland, lying to the north of Glasgow and characterised by a mix of suburban towns and open countryside. The landscape includes river valleys, farmland and rising ground, with the Campsie Fells forming a clear natural boundary to the north.
