Village & Farm

Find out all about the village that gave the country’s most famous racing circuit its name and learn about the area around the track. Farmers worked the fields even after racing had begun in the late 1940s and some unlucky drivers and riders ended up amongst the crops!

Discover why there is a carp pond and use the light-up map to see where the original farm buildings still exist within the track. Take a look at the amazing racing sticker collection on one Silverstone resident's old bedroom door and find out which Formula 1 champion once turned up to open the Silverstone village hall.
