Isle of Man 1905-22, Ards 1928-37, Donington 1937-8, Dundrod 1950-55, Goodwood 1958-64, Oulton 1965-69, Silverstone 1970-88, Donington 1994 & 1997-8 then back to Silverstone 2005-

Supposed to be the oldest trophy in motorsport, as it pre-dates the Indy 500 by 5 or 6 years, although it's had quite a few spells when it wasn't awarded, and IIRC it's always been a sportscar or touring car race.
I really like the idea of awarding it for the Silverstone WEC race- it's a pretty significant part of the history of sportscar racing in the UK. During the Dundrod/Goodwood period, it was quite often a round of the World Championship
