Strathclyde Region

Strathclyde Region is best known within the United Kingdom for the River Clyde and the city of Glasgow. This former Scottish administrative region existed from 1975 to 1996 and covered an exceptionally varied sweep of the country’s west: Glasgow’s industrial and cultural centre, the shores of Loch Lomond, and the sea lochs and islands around the Firth of Clyde. Its western Argyll districts are defined by deeply indented coastlines, wooded glens and lochs, while the Clyde linked inland communities with Scotland’s historic shipbuilding heartland.
