Longridge Circuit is probably the only motor racing circuit in the world to be held in a quarry. Longridge held races between 1973-1978, although sprint events were held prior to this. The circuit was only 0.43 miles long (0.69km), this meant that starters was limited to a maximum of 10. In 1979 the site was sold and is now a caravan park.
