Old travel Blog photograph of houses, cyclist and vintage car on Strowans Road in Silverton, a large housing scheme located near Dumbarton Castle which overlooks the town of Dumbarton, Scotland. It is predominantly a residential area, with both public and private housing stock. Due to its relatively flat geography, the public sector housing was often let to the elderly and infirm of Dumbarton, but now houses a mix of those and commuters to the largest city in Scotland, Glasgow, not far from the town. Dumbarton Academy, the nondenominal public secondary school, though predominantly Protestant, and St. Patrick's Primary School are situated in Silverton, as is the Brock Bowling Club. Dumbarton East railway station is nearby.
