Bowes United Church Cemetery is located on the east side of Hwy 25 between Derry Rd and Britannia Road.

Services commenced in 1827 at the home of Joseph Bowes but by 1835 the congregation had grown too big to be accommodated at Joseph's home. So Bowes and his neighbour John Willmott built a frame building on the southwest corner of Joseph's farm. It was known as Bowes Church. The cemetery was beside it.

By the 1950s, membership was dwindling and the congregation amalgamated with other churches in the area. In 1958 the church building was sold. The cemetery is managed by the United Church of Canada.
