Helensburgh

Helensburgh is a well-heeled town and burgh in Dumbartonshire. It stands on the north shore of the Firth of Clyde and the eastern shore of the entrance to the Gareloch.

Helensburgh today acts as a commuter town for nearby Glasgow though in its own right it is a summertime seaside resort. It serves as a main shopping centre for the area. Helensburgh is also influenced by the presence of the Clyde Naval Base at Faslane on the Gare Loch. Helensburgh is also a popular destination for day trippers. (Read more)
