What is recorded here

Buckden Palace stands as a scheduled monument in Huntingdonshire, having served the bishops of Lincoln from the 12th century until the early 19th century. Several kings stayed within its walls, and Catherine of Aragon was held there in 1533 before moving to Kimbolton Castle. The palace anchors a village that prospered on the Great North Road, linking distant northern routes to London while preserving older Roman and Anglo-Saxon layers beneath its fields.

The National Heritage List for England records Buckden Palace as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Buckden Palace was a medieval royal palace built in the 13th century by King Henry III as a hunting lodge and retreat. It is important as a historical example of a royal residence in the north of England and is remembered for its association with the Plantagenet kings.
