Tourist Guide Bishopbriggs

Bishopbriggs is a prosperous commuter town in East Dunbartonshire, Scotland. Despite the fact that it was once an independent burgh, its close proximity to Glasgow successfully makes it a town of that city. Bishopbriggs developed from a small village to what is now the road from Glasgow to Stirling, with added adjacent villages like Auchinairn and Cadder. The town at present has a population of more or less 23,500 people.

Bishopbriggs was first recognized in Cadder Parish records of 1655 and consorting to one historiographer merely had eleven residents in the mid-1700s. Still more than a century later, after considerable growth, the village is still being recognized in terms of its mother parish of Cadder. There is also a pedestrianised region at Cross Court which comprises the war commemorative plaque, which erected in 1920 by the Stirling family, once the foremost land owners in the region.
