Hawthorn Hill is a hamlet in Berkshire, England, within the civil parish of Warfield. The settlement lies at the junction of the A3095 and A330 roads, and is approximately 3 miles (4.8 km) north of Bracknell. Hawthorn Hill Racecourse was situated where Bird Hills Golf Centre is today, at the end of the Drift Road. It was built on a farm owned by Sir Robert Wilmot. National Hunt meetings started in 1888 and stopped in 1913. They began again in 1921, and were quite a social event during the Jazz Age. They finally ended in 1939.
