The club was formed in 1832, and has been based here since 1859. In this photograph, the two greens are viewed from a gate at the north-west corner of the grounds.

The background buildings include the tower of the old Burgh Hall (and former NS3975 : Dumbarton Academy on Church Street, Dumbarton), a little right of centre. Further to the right, the NS3975 : Remains of Ballantine's Distillery are flanked by two churches: the spire of NS3975 : Riverside Parish Church on the left, and NS3975 : St Augustine's Episcopal Church on the right.

There are several other bowling clubs in Dumbarton; in alphabetical order, they include: Brock (formerly located at NS40407561, but a new green and club house were under construction in late 2011 / early 2012: NS3975 : Brock Bowling Club), Dixon (NS3975 : Dixon Bowling Club), Dumbarton Rock (NS40087438), Dumbuck (NS41427465), Eastfield (NS40467517), and Townend (NS40297612).
