The Storey Baronetcy, of Settrington in the County of York, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 30 January 1960 for the Conservative politician Samuel Storey. In 1966 he was further honoured when he was made a life peer as Baron Buckton, of Settrington in the East Riding of the County of York, in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. The life barony became extinct on his death in 1978 while he was succeeded in the baronetcy by his son, the second and (as of 2016) present holder of the title.

Samuel Storey was the grandfather of Lord Buckton.
