About

Bishopbriggs North and Campsie ward encompasses the northern residential suburbs of Bishopbriggs and extends into the rural western foothills of the Campsie Fells. The area transitions from dense housing estates and local shopping parades near the town centre to open farmland and scattered settlements. It is served by the A803 and Bishopbriggs railway station, providing links to Glasgow. The Forth and Clyde Canal forms a distinct linear boundary through the landscape.

The ward includes the hamlets of Bardowie and Balmore, with the Bardowie Loch and its sailing club being a notable local feature. Land use is primarily agricultural beyond the suburb, with fields demarcated by traditional dry-stane dykes. The Campsie Glen, a steep wooded gorge with waterfalls, is a significant natural landmark on the edge of the ward, leading up onto the moorland slopes of the fells.
