Buckman is a ghost town in Santa Fe County, New Mexico, United States of America, about 5 miles (8.0 km) south of San Ildefonso Pueblo, on the east bank of the Rio Grande in White Rock Canyon.

Buckman had contracted to have a road blasted up a side canyon onto the Pajarito Plateau, and he moved a sawmill in to harvest stands of Ponderosa Pine.

A small community grew at the railway stop, supported by the timber harvesting, and a post office was established on July 22, 1888 with Mr. Buckman as the postmaster.

[2][3] The stop on the railway, the bridge, livestock pens and the road remained for several years, and continued to serve a number of homesteads on the Plateau, as well as the Los Alamos Ranch School and Bandelier National Monument.

In 2001 the site was chosen for the Buckman Direct Diversion Project, a water supply development owned by, and serving the city and county of Santa Fe.
