Buck Park deerpound is a Scheduled Ancient Monument located in Westmorland, consisting of a substantial enclosure constructed from stone walls designed to contain and manage deer. The monument dates to the medieval period, when such deerpounds served as functional facilities for hunting and the husbandry of red and fallow deer on estates. The surviving structure demonstrates the physical remains of a once-important resource for aristocratic hunting practices and meat procurement. The site's preservation provides archaeological evidence of medieval land use and the organisation of rural estates in the English uplands.
