The landmark consists of outbuildings as well, including numerous barns. It is an accessible landmark, no more than a few miles from downtown Aiken. Aiken Mile Track was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on May 9, 1985.[1] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|version=2010a}} 2. ^{{Cite web | last = | first = | coauthors = | title = Aiken Mile Track | work = National Register of Historic Places - Nomination and Inventory | date = May 9, 1985 | url = http://www.nationalregister.sc.gov/aiken/S10817702024/S10817702024.pdf | format = pdf | accessdate = 21 November 2012}} 3. ^{{Cite web | title = Aiken Mile Track, Aiken County (Banks Mill Rd., Aiken) | work = National Register Properties in South Carolina | publisher = South Carolina Department of Archives and History | url = http://www.nationalregister.sc.gov/aiken/S10817702024/index.htm | accessdate = 26 November 2012}} External links
