Boquhan (pronounced Bow-whawn) is a hamlet in Stirling, Scotland, sometimes known as Wester Boquhan to distinguish it from another Boquhan, near Kippen. The hamlet lies 1 mile (1.6 km) southwest of the village of Balfron and 1.25 miles (2.01 km) northeast of Killearn.[1]

Just east of Boquhan is Boquhan Old House which dates from 1784.[1][2]

Boquhan is in the catchment area for Balfron Primary School and Balfron High School.
