Get Oakham pros

Oakham is a historic English market town in Rutland in the East Midlands of England. It is located to the west of Rutland Water, which is one of the most vast man-made lakes in Europe. It is home to All Saints’ Church, founded in the 14th Century, and Oakham Castle, which dates back to the 12th Century. Only the great hall of the castle is still standing, and it is a favourite tourist attraction in the borough. Every Wednesday and Saturday in Oakham there is a market where a selection of local goods are on sale. Every third Saturday there is a farmer’s market on Gaol Street, where local farmers sell their products. A notable landmark in Oakham is the Oakham Signal Box, which Airfix used as a design for all their model rail products. Another custom that the town has is displaying horseshoes in the great hall of the castle. Every time a member of royalty or peer of the realm visited Oakham, they had to pay a fee in the form of a horseshoe. The horseshoes hang upside-down which is normally seen to be unlucky, but in Oakham this was to stop the Devil from sitting in the hollow.
