Chester racecourse -- some History for those illiterates south of Birmingham
Chester Racecourse, known as the Roodee, is according to official records
the oldest racecourse still in use in England.
Horse racing at Chester dates back to the early sixteenth century.
It is also thought to be the smallest racecourse of
significance in England at 1 mile and 1 furlong long.

It is also thought to be the smallest racecourse of
significance in England at 1 mile and 1 furlong long.
The 65-acre (260,000 m2) racecourse lies on the banks of the River Dee. The site was once a harbour during the Roman settlement of the city during the Dark Ages, but was closed as the river silted up thus making navigation impossible. Towards the centre of the in field is a raised mound which is decorated by a small cross known as a "rood". It is from this that the race course derives the name "Roodee"; Roodee is a corruption of "Rood Eye", meaning "The Island of the Cross".
According to legend the cross marks the burial site of a statue of the Virgin Mary sentenced to hang after causing the death of Lady Trawst, the wife of the Governor of Hawarden. The legend states that she had gone to church to pray for rain but when her prayers were answered by a tremendous thunderstorm the statue was loosened and fell, killing her. As a holy object, hanging or burning the statue would be sacrilege so the statue was left by the banks of the river and the tide carried it down to Chester. The statue was found guilty by a jury of 12 men. If the legend is true, then this is the first recorded case of a jury being used in a court.

Archaeologists are still discovering evidence of Chester Racecourse’s fascinating history.
The course stands next to the River Dee and, in Saxon times, was mostly under the water of a river tidal pool. Stones of the Roman harbour wall can be seen at the edge of the course, which is where trading ships would have brought and passed over their goods.
It eas the main Roman Fort for supplying the Roman Army based in the North of England.

Many Roman Legionaires first footstep on England would have been here as supply ships brought reinforcements in to the harbour , saving the men's legs on trekking .

With FULL Roman walls surrounding it that you can completely walk around -- a complete Half Marathon is run along the walls annually with hundreds of people taking part -- they were good those Roman Builders 2,000 years ago.
