Brooklands: Museum Brooklands: Museum No Data

Description


Located at the top end of the site of the Brooklands Racetrack the museum tells the history of the site which was the worlds first motor racing circuit and a centre for car, motorbike and cycle racing, as well as for early aviation. During WWI and WWII the aircraft factories on the site churned out large numbers of planes to help the war effort - including fighters and bombers during WWII. After the war the site became an important part of the UK aviation sector, with 30% of Concorde manufactured on the site. Eventually all production closed down in the 1980s and soon after part of the original circuit and the Club House were turned into the museum.
