Oulton Park

Oulton Park is a motorsport racing track in the village of Little Budworth, Cheshire, set across the hilly terrain of a former country estate. The facility offers three track layouts with different lengths and corner sequences, featuring seventeen turns that follow the natural elevation changes.

The Egerton family lived on the estate for centuries before the grounds were transformed after World War Two. The first official race took place in August 1953, marking the start of motorsport history at this location.

The name comes from an Old English word meaning owl settlement, while today the venue draws motorsport enthusiasts from across Britain. On race days, grandstands fill with spectators who enjoy the roar of engines and the setting among trees from the former estate.

The grounds lie outside the village and are best reached by car, with parking available on event days. Race days draw large crowds, so arriving early helps secure access to good viewing spots.

The track follows the contours of a historic park with old trees lining some sections. Several corners run through dips and over hills that were originally part of the estate's landscaped grounds.
