About Rutherglen
- Rutherglen's royal burgh charter of 1126, granted by King David I of Scotland, makes it one of the oldest burghs in Scotland — older than Glasgow itself, which did not receive its royal charter until 1175. For centuries Rutherglen was a more important settlement than Glasgow, and the two towns were rivals for commercial and political supremacy in the Clyde valley. The town's historic importance is reflected in its magnificent Town Hall, built in 1862, which remains one of the finest Victorian public buildings in the Glasgow area. Rutherglen was incorporated into the City of Glasgow in 1975 but was transferred to South Lanarkshire in 1996, and the town's residents retain a fierce pride in their distinct identity.
