ARLIER THIS YEAR Prudential Assurance bought land within the Brooklands Track area adjacent to the museum.

They have revived a 13 year old planning permission given before the museum opened and their developers Helical Bar have now submitted a £200 million plan to erect 5 office blocks.  They are also proposing a multi-storey car park opposite, adjoining the Malcolm Campbell (of Bluebird and Land Speed Record fame) circuit, opened in 1937, which currently serves as the main entrance to the museum.


Brooklands in 1926. World's first racetrack, opened in 1907 and the site in 1908 of the first flight by an Englishman in his own aeroplane. 2.7 miles of banked concrete track now under threat yet again.
