ABOUT HADLEIEIGH FARM

Construction of the Mountain Bike course was completed in March 2011.

Hadleigh Farm in Essex was chosen because it fulfills requirements as a technically challenging course.
Hadleigh Farm is owned by the Salvation Army. The venue covers a 550-acre site including beautiful grassland and woodland. It also includes the surrounding countryside of Hadleigh Castle Country Park.
The terrain is hilly with open grass land covered by low shrubbery. The site offers some fantastic gradients for mountain biking and great viewing opportunities for spectators. The course is set against the backdrop of the 700-year-old ruins of Hadleigh Castle.
Essex County Council’s planning application for this venue is available on the Castle Point Borough Council website. The reference number you can use to view this application is CPT/228/10/FUL.

DURING THE GAMES

Spectators will be able to watch the action along a course winding through woods and parkland.

AFTER THE GAMES


The temporary structures will be taken down. We will work closely with our partners, including Essex County Council and The Salvation Army, to explore what course will be left in place for future use.
