You can still walk/see (most of) 'London's Own Circuit' (Crystal Palace) in South London. Do your research online before going (history, circuit maps, race videos, entry lists etc.) and you'll find it an extraordinary place to visit and spend a couple of hours walking what remains of the track, and identifying landmarks you've seen in photos and videos of the circuit. Nothing is signposted, if you didn't know it was once a motor racing circuit, you almost certainly wouldn't realise. You are your own tour guide, and the more research you do before visiting, the more you will get out of your visit.
