The spire of Oakham parish church dominates distant views of the town for several miles in all directions. The impressive west tower and spire, built during the 14th century[1] in the Decorated Gothic style, are slightly earlier in date than most of the rest of the exterior of the building, which (apart from some Victorian restoration) is in the Perpendicular style. Oddly, the south doorway and its porch seem to be the oldest parts of the church, the doorway probably dating from the early 13th century with the porch having been added later that century.[1]

Cutts Close Park is the largest park in Oakham and used to be the ponds and garden area of Oakham Castle. It’s a heritage site. In the centre is a bandstand. After the Queen’s jubilee in 2012, it was renamed Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Bandstand. The flowers around it are tended by Oakham’s very own Oakham in Bloom.

All Saints is a Grade I-listed parish church in the heart of Oakham. The church chiefly dates to the 15th century but there are older parts. The porch was built in the 13th century, as was the north chapel arcade. Inside, you can view a 13th-century circular stone font decorated with blind arcading and topped with a late 19th-century wooden cover. The choir stalls, pulpit and brass lectern all date to the 19th century.
