Buckley is the second largest town in the county of Flintshire, North Wales. It is bordered by Ewloe Green to the north, Leeswood to the south, Mold to the west and Broughton the south east. Nearby towns and villages include Flint, Chester, Connah’s Quay, Hawarden, Queensferry, Holywell, Northop, Pontybodkin, Shotton and Soughton. The A55 passes to the north of Buckley, giving the town easy access to Holyhead and Chester.
Buckley observes a regional celebration and march over 200 years old called the Buckley Jubilee, which is celebrated on the second Tuesday of July. The Jubilee is a ceremonial march that begins on "The Common", a large area of common ground owned by the people of the town used for leisure and recreational purposes. The march then leaves the common, and marches through the town, with representatives from the local Sunday Schools, Scout and Guide troops, and many of the local schools. Banners from each of the local faiths are carried.
