The cemetery, belonging to the Bowes and Gilmonby Joint Burial Committee, is near Saint Giles' Church (across the lane from the churchyard) and Bowes Castle ruins.

The cemetery opened in 1875, originally as an extension to the churchyard; and burials date from then to the present, although some burials continued in St Giles' churchyard until 1904.
As late as the early 1900s the cemetery was known as "The New Burial Ground".
