Britannia United Church and Cemetery are associated with the Wesleyan Methodist congregation. The land on which the building and graveyard are located was donated by Joseph Gardner in 1830. The church was originally called Gardner's Chapel or Gardner's Methodist Church. The current building replaced a log structure, built in 1821 on the north corner of where the present church sits. Britannia United Church is believed to have been built in 1843, as its datestone under the front entrance gable indicates, however the structure only acquired its current appearance after extensive renovations in 1864 and again in 1897 to accommodate its growing population. During the later renovation, a basement was excavated and the interior was updated.
Established in 1830, the first burials in the cemetery are recorded as having begun in 1837. The cemetery was enlarged in 1910 as well as in 1933; to date there has been 230 burials. The cemetery is under a perpetual upkeep plan which makes it one of the best kept cemeteries in the area.
