BAYKO BARON 15

NEMANDIBLE CHASE

Laid out by Guy Chinless (19th Baron Chinless), the WW1 fighter ace and motoring enthusiast, in the grounds of Chinless Hall, The Chase was never a commercial success – crippled first by The Depression and then taken over by the M.O.D. during WWII. But it was always a superb ‘driver’s circuit’. 

A view from behind the Moet and Dom Perignon stands

Handed back to the Chinless family in derelict condition The Chase is today a going concern once more – thanks entirely to the genius of Lady Lavinia Grasp-Chinless’ new husband – Sir Arnold Grasp

Today they pulse with life once more thanks to the enterprise of Sir Arnold Grasp the up-and-coming husband of Lady Lavinia Grasp-Chinless
