The cars appear to be starting alongside an old stone building rather like some current venues amd the banner above them carries the Start legend.
Any thoughts?

Interesting bit of history included above notice of the 2019 Revival.
Oakamore also gets a decent mention in Julian Hunt's excellent Motorsport Explorer book.

Very interesting - thanks Pete (and Roger). And according to my map, just thirty miles north of the Curborough Sprint course. So, is there a connection somewhere I wonder?

I wonder if this is just a normal road closure or one authorised by Motorsport UK but as it's not competitive then presumably not , rather like Kop.
