Thanks for the info about the Shaw car Steve. Must have been quite a crash.

This is how Motoring News described Pierpoint's crash.

Leech, again showing class, continued to fend off the determined attacks of Pierpoint, and then on lap 14 he saw the most horrifying sight in his mirror. Pierpoint lost control of Bill Shaw’s red Camaro as he breasted the rise by the water tower. The car smashed head-long into a tree, bounced off it and hit another tree backwards. Quite how Pierpoint escaped with only a broken nose from the dreadful wreckage we will never know.

Thanks Milan - I can only assume that Pierpoint lost control at the top of Clay Hill. In the 1960's there was a building at the top of Clay Hill with a flat roof that was used as a viewing area, looking down Clay Hill towards Knicker Brook. No idea if it was actually a water tower, though. The building no longer seems to be there today.

A pair of what look like Alan Mann Racing Escorts heading down the back straight into Knicker Brook. Late 1960's.
