Location:
The village of Silverstone was originally surrounded by the ancient woodland of Whittlewood Forest. The locals of the village would have made their living from making charcoal and other woodland crafts. In the 12th the woodland surrounding Silverstone became home to a royal hunting lodge century used by King John.
Silverstone was also the site of a 12th century priory known as Luffield Abbey where a monastic community flourished. With the dissolution of the monasteries the Abbey fell into ruin and the last remnants of the structure where covered over in the Second World War when an aerodrome was built on the site. This aerodrome is now home to Silverstone racing circuit and part of the track which is called ‘Abbey Curve’ pays homage to the original Abbey.
The village is still fortunate to have parts of Whittlewood forest close which are used for outdoor recreation. These include Hazelborough Forest and Bucknell Wood – both of which are currently maintained by the Forestry Commission.
Although Silverstone has moved with the times and has thriving community; it does still maintain a quintessentially English village feel with a number of Listed buildings and is surrounded by beautiful countryside.
