Following on from previous posts about Shelsley Walsh, Montlhery, Reims, etc I visited Brooklands a couple of weeks ago for a look around the museum and to crawl through the undergrowth for a look at the remains of the circuit. I was (pleasantly) surprised to find there is a lot of it still in existence. However, for various reasons, it has been sectioned, built on or buggered about with for about 1/4 of the length of the outer circuit. If you're interested, have a look here http://www.brooklands.org.uk/intro.htmand here http://www.brooklandsmuseum.com/for more information. Plus I'll subsequently post some photos of the circuit as it is today - pictures in the order of the original anticlockwise direction of the circuit.

Steve Thanks for the pictures I used to sneak over onto the banking by the River Wey when I was at college nearby. It was British Aircraft Corporation land in those days, and technically tresspass I didn't realise there was so much of it left, although it's a bit worse for wear that when i saw it last
