The village of Kippen is set in a beautiful landscape overlooking the Carse of Stirling with breath-taking views across the valley to the Trossachs. It owes much to the building in the 1700s of the military road from Stirling to Dumbarton as it lay at the junction between this and a traditional drove route south over the hills to Fintry
A church at Kippen was first mentioned in public records in the 1300's and the remains of the nearby Old Kirk of Kippen date back to 1691.
The Friends of Kippen Church Trust assist with the maintenance of the historic aspects of the fabric of the current building.
