Buckland maintains a quiet composure across the verdant floor of the Mole Valley, where the air often holds the cool, damp scent of the nearby chalk downs. It lies 1.4 miles west-north-west of Reigate (from Reigate: bearing 284°T, OS grid TQ 231 507), and is situated north-north-west of Skimmington village. Sunlight here catches the water of Buckland Park Lake, a former sand pit now transformed into a glass-like mirror that reflects the shifting clouds of the Surrey sky. To the east, the ancient earthworks of the Reigate Heath Round Barrow Cemetery rise from the grass like sleeping giants, their slopes smoothed by centuries of wind and weather. Buckland draws its character from this interplay of managed woodland and the stark, earthen markers of a distant past. The houses gather loosely along the road, built of stone and tile that seem to absorb the muted tones of the changing seasons. Even in the stillness of an afternoon, one senses the weight of the landscape pressing gently against the edges of the gardens. This balance of water and high ground gives Buckland a sense of permanence that lingers long after the sun dips behind the trees.
