Dumbarton was a constituency represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1983 until 2005. It was largely absorbed into the new constituency of Dunbartonshire West, with Helensburgh joining Argyll and Bute. It is still a constituency for elections to the Scottish Parliament (as of 2006).
It consisted of the towns of Dumbarton, the Vale of Leven, and Helensburgh, plus a significant rural hinterland.
