Clydebank and District Golf Club's location within the village
of Hardgate is steeped in history, with the old Woollen Mills of
Hardgate and Duntocher, now defunct, which were powered by water
from the Kilpatrick Hills.
Clydebank is also home of the famous John Brown Shipyards, were the luxury
liners Queen Mary, Queen Elizabeth, the QE2, and many more, were built. The Queen
Mary is now a floating hotel in Palm Beach, California. John Browns and
William Beardmores had an early association with the Golf Club, assisting
with finance to buy the ground for the course.
The remains of the Antonine
Wall run along the south boundary of the course at the 7th hole.
