Oakham Castle was built between 1180 and 1190 by the Norman Baron Wakelin de Ferrers. The Manor Has passed through many influential hands from the last Saxon Queen, Edith of Wessex, through to Henry VIII's right hand man, Thomas Cromwell. It is now owned by Rutland County Council and was recently refurbished with a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund. We offer a wide selection of educational services from half day and full day visits to outreach and special needs adult education sessions. Our experienced teams deliver entertaining and inspiring sessions that bring history alive, ensuring complex subjects are as accessible as possible through engagement and interactivity reinforcing core information.
