The area has since been developed into housing and a park, which is known as "Racecourse Park". It comprises a sports area, children's play area and public toilets.
The Racecourse Pub (on Nacton Road) reputedly stands on the site of the finishing line. In 2009 the Racecourse went bankrupt and was demolished later in the year. A Tesco Express and five homes now occupy the site, which was completed in early 2010.
