Great Auclum National Speed Hill Climb was a motorcar course close to Burghfield Common in the English county of Berkshire.

It was based in the grounds of a large country house, formerly owned by a family connected to Huntley and Palmer - the famous biscuit manufacturers at nearby Reading, Berkshire. The hill climb was organised by the Hants and Berks Motor Club as a National Speed Hill Climb. This was part of the RAC British Hill Climb Championship, and at 440 yards (400 m) long it was the shortest of events in the Championship. The course travelled nearly as far downhill as it did up, with a finish almost level with the start

Great Auclum was last used in 1974 so Mamhead may well be the shortest hillclimb still currently used....

Not sure about actual length as I havent competed at Mamhead yet, but IIRC roadgoing kitcar class record at mamhead is circa 23secs.

Tregrahan Hillclimb here in deepest darkest cornwall has to be amongst the quickest, B3 class again, is circa 19secs.
