near to Oakham, Rutland, Great Britain

The Market Place, Oakham
The Market Place, Oakham
This is taken from corner of the small cobbled street that leads to the site of Oakham Castle and the still existing Great Hall. The entrance to the Oakham boarding school can be seen in the distance, in the left corner of the market square. The large covered area in the centre of the square is the Oakham Buttercross. Note the absence of people as it is Sunday morning (not a Saturday market day!) as well as the cloud formations and vapour trails in the blue sky.
