The B765 was a short link in Glasgow's east end. It started in the centre of Rutherglen, where the A730 turned from heading west along Main Street to heading north along Glasgow Road. The B765 headed west along Burnhill Street and then continued along Prospecthill Road into Toryglen. Here it turned right into Aikenhead Road, which it followed roughly northwards to its terminus on the A728 Cathcart Road in Govanhill.
The route survived into the 1970s but has since disappeared. The east-west section is now part of the extended B768 whilst the north-south section is part of a rerouted A728.
The 1922 MOT Road List defines this route as: Rutherglen - Glasgow
