Buckden is a small village situated at the foot of Buckden Pike at the head of upper Wharfedale in the Yorkshire Dales.
Formerly associated with hunting and the wild expanse of Langstrothdale Chase, Buckden was a "staging post" in days gone by for travellers venturing north up Langstrothdale or over Kidstones Pass into Bishopdale and Wensleydale to the north.
