Previously known as Tippermuir, it was the site of the Battle of Tippermuir in 1644, between the Marquis of Montrose's army and an army of Covenanters.[2]

The church building, dating from 1632 and enlarged in 1789[3] is in a poor state of repair. Restoration was being considered in 2007.[4] The church building is now only used occasionally for weddings and funerals.

Tibbermore has several listed buildings.
