This is a full day out at which you can explore classic vehicles, racing cars, motorcycles and historic aircraft. Discover the world famous Concorde as well as British motorsport history at the world’s first purpose-built race track.
Brooklands was built at Weybridge, Surrey in 1907. It was the birthplace of British motorsport and aviation, home of Concorde and the site of many engineering and technological achievements throughout eight decades of the 20th century. Brooklands helped to shape Britain and the World.
The Brooklands circuit was built by local landowners Hugh and Ethel Locke King on 330 acres of farm and woodland on their estate. It included two huge banked sections nearly 30 ft high and the track was 100 ft wide, made of concrete and incorporating two long straights. The total length of the track was 3.25 miles. This outstanding feat of engineering was built in only nine months.
In 1909 an area in the middle of the track was cleared to create one of Britain’s first aerodromes, from which Louis Paulhan gave Britain’s first public flying demonstration that October. Soon other pioneers were attracted to Brooklands, including Tommy Sopwith, who learned to fly at Brooklands in 1910. He subsequently formed and led first the Sopwith and later the Hawker aircraft companies which produced the majority of Britain’s fighter aircraft in the 20th century.
