The most important building in the village is the Anglican St John the Baptist Church. It was built by convicts in 1846. It has been claimed that the church's impressive East Window dates from the fourteenth century. The entire east window is made up of ten individual panels of varying sizes and shapes to form a lancet shape overall.

Buckland in the 1830’s or Prosser Plains as it was then known, was isolated and dangerous. It was the habitat of bushrangers and convict labour sent from the gaols of Richmond and Oatlands to work on the development of farming properties. It was rough and wild and there were many souls to be saved. The Lt-Governor in Hobart Town realised in 1836 that a service had not been performed in Prosser Plains by a clergyman for 7 years and the convict servants should not continue without the word of God being preached to them, and so it was very quickly decided a church should be built. The Buckland Church was completed in 1846 and is a replica of the parish church at Cookham Dean in Sussex from where the first referend, Reverend F.H. Cox originated. The Buckland Church stands large and solid as the most authentic example of early Medieval English church architecture in Tasmania. It possesses a very memorable east-facing stained glass window with stories that involve medieval monks, a churchyard, a Marquis, an Earl, William the Conqueror, the Tudors, Roundheads and Royalists, gemstones and pirates. The Buckland Church has been deconsecrated and purchased by the community (Friends of the Buckland Church Inc.). The Church is available for hire for weddings, funerals, community events, theatre, musical concerts and photo shoots.

The Tasmanian Bushland Garden is a free-entry botanical garden and nature reserve northeast of Hobart, Tasmania. It is located in a peaceful rural setting beside the Tasmanian Highway. Footpaths meander through Display Gardens and a Memorial Garden featuring the native plants of east Tasmania, with interpretive signage. There are also walking tracks through the 20 hectares of bushland with scenic views and abundant birdlife. Facilities include public toilets, a picnic shelter, picnic tables, electric barbecue, free car and bus parking. The gardens have been established by a group of passionate volunteers, using donations and grants, so that visitors may enjoy a break, reconnect with nature, and learn something of our wonderful native flora. The aim of the gardens is educating people to the values of our indigenous plants, both in nature and in garden situations. Keep an eye out for some amazing sculptures all around the gardens.
