The first Falmouth Baptist Church was constituted in 1830, when a group of members from the Windsor Baptist Church organized a church in Falmouth. Construction was completed in 1831.
In 1862 the Falmouth Baptist Church congregation discussed building a larger church to accommodate its expansion. The construction was carried out in close proximity to the original church by master builder John Edmund Taylor.

The church, erected in 1871, features a stencilled wall frieze that adorns the four walls of the nave (oil on plaster c.1870).
