Larbert is a town in the Falkirk council area of Scotland. The town lies in the Forth Valley over the River Carron which flows from the west. It lies roughly 3 miles (4.8 kilometres) from the coastline of the Firth of Forth and 2.5 miles (4.0 kilometres) northwest of Falkirk, the main town in the area. The village of Stenhousemuir lies directly east of Larbert, with both settlements being adjoining and sharing certain public amenities with one another. In middle ages times, the Larbert area was greatly forested, but this was cleared and gave rise to much of the agricultural land which encircles the town. The growth of industry and particularly the arrival in the 1840s of the Scottish Central Railway, which passes through the village, provided a base for economic growth. From the late 18th century up until the middle of the 20th century, heavy industry, such as boiler making, casting and manufacturing underpinned the economy of Larbert. The Victorian era also saw the opening of the Stirling District Lunatic Asylum at Bellsdyke and Scottish National Institution for Children on the Stenhouse Estate. This made Larbert key in providing care, both locally and country wide. Despite the fact that the traditional financial base of Larbert faded away with the downturn of heavy industry, it has recently experienced much development as a commuter town. A lot of locals operate in the close-by towns of Falkirk and Stirling, in addition to the cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow. The 2011 Census demonstrates that the population of Larbert has actually grown to 9143 from the 2001 Census record of 6425, and it continues to increase with large-scale housing development on the northern periphery of the town in addition to on brownfield sites.
