Clydebelt started on 26 November 1990 at a public meeting of 400 people who were opposed to a horrendous planning application for the hills. We have carried out other campaigns for the Hills since.

For many years Clydebelt helped to keep away further attempts to introduce unwelcome built developments on the Kilpatrick Hills, such as a revival of the idea to put an artificial ski slope in the hills. But there have been attempts to rezone the Green Belt to permit leisure developments and housing (one succeeding), and planning applications as below.
