Visiting and staying in East Dunbartonshire
East Dunbartonshire (Scots: Aest Dunbartonshire; Scottish Gaelic: Siorrachd Dhùn Bhreatainn an Ear) is one of the 32 council areas of Scotland. It borders onto the north-west of the City of Glasgow. It contains many of the suburbs of Glasgow as well as containing many of the city's commuter towns and villages. East Dunbartonshire also shares a border with West Dunbartonshire, Stirling, and North Lanarkshire. The council area covers part of the former county of Stirlingshire as well as parts of the former counties of Dunbartonshire and Lanarkshire.
The council area was formed in 1996, as a result of the Local Government etc. (Scotland) Act 1994, from part of the former Bearsden and Milngavie and Strathkelvin districts of the wider Strathclyde region.
In a 2007 Reader's Digest poll, East Dunbartonshire was voted the best place in the UK to raise a family.
East Dunbartonshire is a district in west London, England, located in the London Borough of East Dunbartonshire. It is situated 7.7 miles (12.4 km) west of Charing Cross.

East Dunbartonshire studios have been making films for over 100 years. And films like St Trinians are proving just as popular today as when the Studio was boosting London’s morale during the Blitz or Michael Balcon and Alexander Korda were creating the classic East Dunbartonshire Comedies. East Dunbartonshire has always been at the heart of the British film industry.
