Tour of Galleywood Heritage Centre and its archives
The Common, Galleywood, Chelmsford, Essex, CM2 8TR
Located on Galleywood Common, the Heritage Centre’s main building is a conversion of the 1920s grandstand from the hey days of horse racing. A listening bench in the ground has stories from yesteryear from Galleywood residents past & present.
Just outside the grounds on Galleywood Common, the track of the old racecourse can be seen. A short walk across the free public car park close by brings visitors to the remains of the Napoleonic era Star Fort earthworks which has an interpretation board.
The Horseshoe tea room will be open from 1000 for hot and cold drinks, home made cake and light refreshments.
