High Beech Speedway

High Beech Speedway, also known as Kings Oak Speedway, is a defunct British motorcycle speedway team that operated between 1928 and 1931 and was based at High Beach, Loughton, Epping Forest District, Essex, England.

History

High Beech competed in the 1930 Speedway Southern League, finishing 11th. The club returned the following season and finished sixth in the 1931 Speedway Southern League.
It was inevitable that without a stadium as such, the club would not be able to compete with the bigger teams, and they duly folded after the 1930 season. The venue is famous within the speedway world due to the fact that it held the first known speedway meeting in Britain on 19 February 1928.
