HISTORY OF THE AREA
Mugdock Castle
Milngavie’s blend of historical significance, industrial heritage, and natural beauty makes it a unique and attractive part of East Dunbartonshire. Originally a small village, Milngavie flourished during the Industrial era with the establishment of various mills along the Allander Water. The village served as a local centre for commerce and industry and the arrival of the railway in 1863 spurred further growth connecting Milngavie with Glasgow and nearby areas. The area also became notable for the construction of the Glasgow Corporation Waterworks which supplied fresh water to Glasgow. Milngavie has transformed from a small village to a desirable suburban town, offering a mix of urban amenities while providing access to the surrounding countryside. With a strong focus on preserving Milngavie’s historical sites and natural beauty, the town embraces development with conservation making it a charming and thriving community.
