Longridge Circuit was a motor racing circuit built in the former Tootle Heights quarry close to Longridge, Lancashire, England. It held races between 1973–1978, although sprint events were held prior to this. The circuit was only 0.43 miles long (0.69 km), this meant that starters was limited to a maximum of 10. In 1979 the site was sold and is now a caravan park.
