Lennoxtown is a small town in East Dunbartonshire, Scotland, situated at the foot of the Campsie Fells about ten miles north of Glasgow. Its position on the edge of the hills makes it popular with walkers and offers quick access to scenic glens and crags while still serving as a convenient commuter link into the city.

Historically it grew up as a 19th-century mill and textile village, with bleachfields and works that shaped its streets and community; traces of that industrial past sit alongside modern housing, local shops and community facilities. Today Lennoxtown retains a strong village identity, with grassroots clubs, regular local events and an emphasis on outdoor recreation in the surrounding landscape.
