Dumbarton
Translating as 'fort of the Britons', Dumbarton is a town in West Dunbartonshire. It is on the north edge of the River Clyde where the River Leven encounters the Clyde estuary in Scotland. Historically, Dumbarton was the capital of the ancient Kingdom of Alclud, and after that the county town of Dunbartonshire, being a Royal burgh in between 1222 and 1975. Dominating the town is Dumbarton Castle, positioned at the top of Dumbarton Rock, which has a long history, recognised particularly for its substantial role in the War of Independence by being the jail of William Wallace after his capture by the English. As a Scheduled Ancient Monument, Dumbarton Rock is legally protected from any sort of work taking place on the rock, such as preventing such activities as rock climbing. Dumbarton was bombed on a large scale during the Second World War, as the German air force was targeting shipyards, with Clyde and Leven Street being profoundly affected. Decoy lights were typically placed on the Kilpatrick hills above the town and on tanks in the attempt to mimic those of the shipyards and to outwit the bombing planes, which had a decent amount of success. While Dumbarton was known for its shipbuilding, glassmaking and whisky production, the decrease of these industries in the 20th century has suggested that it is predominantly a commuter town for its 20527 residents. The town is home to Dumbarton F.C., playing in the Scottish Professional Football League at Scottish Championship level. The Denny Civic Theatre is used by a variety of regional groups, such as the Dumbarton People's Theatre who put on numerous performances.
