Chelmsford Racecourse
Chelmsford Racecourse was a horse racing venue located at Galleywood, near Chelmsford, Essex. The course was active from at least 1759 until its final closure in April 1935. The course initially staged Flat racing before switching to National Hunt racing in 1892. Amongst the horses who raced at the course was the Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Golden Miller, who won two hurdle races at Chelmsford in 1931. Parts of the course have been preserved and can still be seen.[1]
