== History ==

=== Middle Ages === According to the Dictionary of British place-names, the name of the parish comes from the "''enclosure of a man called Bucc, or where bucks are kept''".<ref>{{cite web|title=Buckworth|url=http://kepn.nottingham.ac.uk/map/place/Huntingdonshire/Buckworth|publisher=Key to English place names|accessdate=26 February 2014}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|last=Mills|first=David|title=A Dictionary of British Place-Names|year=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press|location=Oxford|page=84|isbn=9780199609086|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=tXucAQAAQBAJ&q=Buchesworde&pg=PA84|edition=1st|accessdate=20 February 2014}}</ref>

In 1085, William the Conqueror ordered that a survey should be carried out across his kingdom to discover who owned which parts and what it was worth. The survey took place in 1086 and the results were recorded in what, since the 12th century, has become known as the Domesday Book. Starting with the king himself, for each landholder within a county there is a list of their estates or manors; and, for each manor, there is a summary of the resources of the manor, the amount of annual rent that was collected by the lord of the manor both in 1066 and in 1086, together with the taxable value.<ref name=Pen86>{{cite book|title=Domesday Book: A Complete Translation |publisher=Penguin Books |date=1992 |location =London|editor1=Ann Williams |editor2=G.H.

Buckworth was listed in the Domesday Book in the Hundred of Leightonstone in Huntingdonshire; the name of the settlement was written as ''Buchesworde'' in the Domesday Book.<ref name=PenIndex>{{cite book|title=Domesday Book: A Complete Translation |publisher=Penguin Books |date=1992 |location =London|editor1=Ann Williams |editor2=G.H. Martin|page=1322|isbn=0-141-00523-8}}</ref> In 1086 there was just one manor at Buckworth; the annual rent paid to the lord of the manor in 1066 had been £10 and the rent had increased to £13 in 1086.<ref name=OD86>{{cite web|url=http://opendomesday.org/place/TL1476/buckworth |title= Open Domesday: Place - Buckworth| website=www.opendomesday.org |publisher = Anna Powell-Smith| author= Professor J.J.N. Palmer, University of Hull| accessdate=25 February 2016}}</ref>

The Domesday Book does not explicitly detail the population of a place but it records that there was 25 households at Buckworth.<ref name=OD86/> There is no consensus about the average size of a household at that time; estimates range from 3.5 to 5.0 people per household.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.localpopulationstudies.org.uk/PDF/Sources_and_methods/Sources-and-methodsLPS78.pdf|first1=Nigel|last1=Goose|first2=Andrew|last2=Hinde|title=Estimating Local Population Sizes|accessdate=23 February 2016}}</ref> Using these figures then an estimate of the population of Buckworth in 1086 is that it was within the range of 87 and 125 people.

The Domesday Book uses a number of units of measure for areas of land that are now unfamiliar terms, such as hides and ploughlands. In different parts of the country, these were terms for the area of land that a team of eight oxen could plough in a single season and are equivalent to {{convert|120|acre|hectare}}; this was the amount of land that was considered to be sufficient to support a single family. By 1086, the hide had become a unit of tax assessment rather than an actual land area; a hide was the amount of land that could be assessed as £1 for tax purposes. The survey records that there was 18 ploughlands at Buckworth in 1086.<ref name=OD86/> In addition to the arable land, there was {{convert|80|acre|hectare|0}} of meadows and {{convert|30|acre|hectare|0}} of woodland at Buckworth.<ref name=OD86/>

The tax assessment in the Domesday Book was known as geld or danegeld and was a type of land-tax based on the hide or ploughland. It was originally a way of collecting a tribute to pay off the Danes when they attacked England, and was only levied when necessary. Following the Norman Conquest, the geld was used to raise money for the King and to pay for continental wars; by 1130, the geld was being collected annually. Having determined the value of a manor's land and other assets, a tax of so many shillings and pence per pound of value would be levied on the land holder. While this was typically two shillings in the pound the amount did vary; for example, in 1084 it was as high as six shillings in the pound. For the manor at Buckworth the total tax assessed was 10 geld.<ref name=OD86/>

By 1086, there was already a church and a priest at Buckworth. In 1066, the Lord was Earl Tosti and in 1086 Robert Count of Eu. The Head of the Manor is mentioned to be Great Paxton I. Concerning agriculture, Buckworth used to be on the route from the north of England to bring animals to the London markets. It was a busy thoroughfare.<ref>{{cite book|last=Brown|first=Christine|title=The Buckworth Experience|pages=23|url=http://www.hateley.me.uk/buckworth/book/buckworth-book.pdf|accessdate=27 March 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140306202306/http://www.hateley.me.uk/buckworth/book/buckworth-book.pdf|archive-date=6 March 2014|url-status=dead}}</ref>

=== The 19th Century === From 1 July 1837, Buckworth was a part of the Huntingdon Registration district. Thereafter, it was integrated to the Spaldwick sub-District. However, it is now back in the Huntingdon District.<ref>{{cite web|last=Hinson|first=Colin|title=Buckworth - Civil Registration|url=http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/HUN/Buckworth/|publisher=Genuki|accessdate=27 February 2014}}</ref> Buckworth was a part of the Poor Laws in the Huntingdon Union.<ref>{{cite web|title=Poorhouses and Poor Law Etc|url=http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/HUN/Buckworth/|publisher=Genuki|accessdate=27 February 2014}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Poor Laws Union|url=http://www.cambridgeshirehistory.com/huntingdonshire/index.html|publisher=Cambridgeshire History|accessdate=27 February 2014}}</ref> thumb|Total population of Buckworth Civil Parish, as reported by the Census of Population from 1871 tp 2011

thumb|Percentage of males working in agriculture compared to the total population in Buckworth from 1831 to 2011

The first Census available for Buckworth is dated at 1801 and at this time the village was composed of 130 inhabitants only. The population had grown consistently until 1880. In the 1881 Census of population, the number of people living in Buckworth was 223, which was the highest so far. Until 1950 the population decreased more or less constantly and the population's growth began again at the beginning of the 1950s up to now.<ref name="Wilson"/>

As reported in the 1831 and 1881 Occupational Orders, the main source of employment for men was agriculture. In 1881, female workers were employed in domestic service, in offices or without specified occupations for the most part. The other principal categories of employment were professionals, animals, dress, mineral substances, and house, furniture and decorations.<ref>{{cite book|last=Wilson|first=John Marius|title=Gazetteer of England and Wales|date=1870–1872|publisher=A.

=== First and second World Wars === According to a war memorial in All Saints Church, two men died in the First World War, one in Vinny Ridge and the second in Agnez. However, no deaths were registered during the Second World War as nobody from the village was engaged in military defence. During the night of 16 April 1942, five land mines from the British aircraft were jettisoned near Brook Lodge Farm. They all exploded but no damages or injuries occurred.<ref>{{cite book|last=Brown|first=Christine|title=The Buckworth Experience|pages=34|url=http://www.hateley.me.uk/buckworth/book/buckworth-book.pdf|accessdate=6 March 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140306202306/http://www.hateley.me.uk/buckworth/book/buckworth-book.pdf|archive-date=6 March 2014|url-status=dead}}</ref> The Second World War changed the way of farming in the village.

== Government == As a civil parish, Buckworth has a parish council. The parish council is elected by the residents of the parish who have registered on the electoral roll; the parish council is the lowest tier of government in England. A parish council is responsible for providing and maintaining a variety of local services including allotments and a cemetery; grass cutting and tree planting within public open spaces such as a village green or playing fields. The parish council reviews all planning applications that might affect the parish and makes recommendations to Huntingdonshire District Council, which is the local planning authority for the parish. The parish council also represents the views of the parish on issues such as local transport, policing and the environment. The parish council raises its own tax to pay for these services, known as the parish precept, which is collected as part of the Council Tax.

Buckworth was in the historic and administrative county of Huntingdonshire until 1965. From 1965, the village was part of the new administrative county of Huntingdon and Peterborough. Then in 1974, following the Local Government Act 1972, Buckworth became a part of the county of Cambridgeshire.
