Newmarket, on the Suffolk/Cambridgeshire border, had a population of around 19,000 at the 2021 census — a small town with an outsized reputation as the historic home of British horseracing.
The headquarters of British horseracing
Newmarket's association with racing dates back to the 17th century, when King Charles II kept a palace in the town and raced his own horses there, helping establish it as the sport's centre. That status has never really moved on: Newmarket is home to the Jockey Club, the National Horseracing Museum, Tattersalls bloodstock auction house, two racecourses (the Rowley Mile and the July Course), and dozens of training yards where a large share of Britain's racehorses are trained on the surrounding heath. It's often described simply as the headquarters of British horseracing, and the industry still shapes much of the town's economy and identity today.
What that history doesn't leave behind
Newmarket's racing world doesn't come with a dedicated bulk sweet shop — there's nowhere locally set up for bulk bags, vegan-specific ranges or halal-friendly lines at scale.
