Crystal Palace



Originally a twisting road course at Anerley Hill, Sydenham, South London, the RAC ruled that the infield was too tight, and the infield was bypassed on reopening after the war. Only a limited number of races could be held due to the proximity of houses, and eventually noise protests and safety concerns forced the Greater London Council to close it on 23rd September 1972.

Track Length: 2.00 miles pre-war, 1.39 miles subsequently.
