Clydesdale was a county constituency represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1983 until 2005. In the latter year, as part of a major reorganisation of Scottish constituencies, it was redistributed to Dumfriesshire, Clydesdale and Tweeddale, Lanark and Hamilton East and East Kilbride, Strathaven and Lesmahagow.

The similarly named Scottish Parliament constituency of Clydesdale continues in existence.
