Lanark Burghs (also known as Linlithgow Burghs) was a district of burghs constituency of the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom (at Westminster) from 1708 to 1832, representing a seat for one Member of Parliament (MP).

There was also a later Lanark county constituency, from 1918 to 1983.

The British parliamentary constituency was created in 1708 following the Acts of Union, 1707 and replaced the former Parliament of Scotland burgh constituencies of Linlithgow, Lanark, Peebles and Selkirk.

The constituency covered four burghs: Linlithgow in the county of Linlithgow, Lanark in the county of Lanark, Peebles in the county of Peebles, and Selkirk in the county of Selkirk.

The constituency elected one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first past the post system until the seat was abolished for the 1832 general election.^{[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]}

For the 1832 general election, as a result of the Representation of the People (Scotland) Act 1832, Peebles was merged into the county constituency of Peeblesshire, Selkirk was merged into the county constituency of Selkirkshire, and the remaining burghs were combined with Airdrie and Hamilton, both in the county of Lanark, to form Falkirk Burghs. At the same time, however, the boundaries of burghs for parliamentary election purposes ceased be necessarily those for other purposes.
