The history of the parish church at Larbert dates back to at least 1160. The location of an older church from the 1620s can still be made out in the churchyard and that in turn replaced an earlier structure. The current church building was completed in 1821.
The earliest gravestones have dates in the 1630s but there were likely earlier burials that are no longer marked or are lacking inscriptions with dates. The churchyard is one of the largest in the Falkirk district, having been extended several times in the 18th and 19th centuries. The graveyard was closed to new families around 1904 although burials for existing lair owners continued.
The Churchyard is to be found at the Junction of Stirling Road (A9) & Denny Road (B905).
