Q: Robert from Preston: "Are there any important hill forts around Buckley and does the name come from 'pasture of the bucks' (deer pasture), which were important animals to the Celts?" Iron Age hill forts in NE Wales

I've heard a couple of different stories about how Buckley got it's name, the above being one of them, but another theory is that it is a mutation of the Welsh 'Pwll Clai' meaning 'Clay Pit' which could refer to the town's brickmaking history.
