Enderbury's Men's Outfitters Rises, After Break-In, Oakham Rutland


Enderbury's Men's Outfitters is back in business, just seven weeks after a burglary left the store devastated with a stolen inventory. The shop on Oakham High Street officially reopened its doors on Friday (26th April 2024).

Back in February, the store was targeted by thieves who made off with all the stock. The incident left a dark cloud over the business, but owner Peter and his team rallied together, determined to bounce back.

"It was a difficult time, no doubt about it," says Peter. "But the outpouring of support from our customers has been incredible. It really motivated us to rebuild and get back to serving the community."

The past few weeks have been a whirlwind of activity for Enderbury's. The team worked tirelessly to restock the shelves with a fresh selection of menswear, ensuring a variety of styles and brands to cater to all tastes.

"We've got something for everyone, Whether you're looking for a sharp suit for work, some casual weekend wear, or the latest trends, we've got you covered."

The grand reopening was a resounding success, with many loyal customers eager to show their support. 

"We're incredibly grateful for the support we've received," concludes Peter. "We're back and better than ever, and we look forward to serving Oakham for many years to come."

So if you're in need of a wardrobe refresh, head down to Enderbury's Men's Outfitters and experience the difference for yourself. You won't be disappointed.

The Honourable Mr Justice Pepperpall, Sentenced Two Leicestershire Drug Dealers at Oakham Castle Court, Oakham Rutland, A Student from the University of Leicester, it was the other mans 28th Birthday.

The Honourable Mr Justice Pepperpall, Sentenced Two Leicestershire Drug Dealers at Oakham Castle Court, Oakham Rutland, A Student from the University of Leicester, it was the other mans 28th Birthday.

The Honourable Mr Justice Pepperpall sentenced two Leicestershire drug dealers at Oakham Castle Court on Friday, October 6, 2023.

The judge also set a date for a trial for Tyler Wright.

He sentenced Leicester University student Jay Shah to an 80-hour community order for dealing drugs. It was accepted that Shah was a low-level dealer and sold drugs to fund his own habit. £600 that was found after his arrest was forfeited and drugs and a mobile phone were confiscated and the judge ordered their destruction.

Callum Noon, (whose 28th birthday was today) the second drug dealer, was handed two custodial sentences, suspended for 12 months. His drugs, mobile phone, scales, and a knife were confiscated and the judge ordered those items should be destroyed. Noon received a 6-month suspended sentence for carrying a blade in a public place, although it was accepted that Noon did not realise the small knife attached to a key ring would be illegal for him to carry in his rucksack. The judge pointed out that ignorance of the law is no excuse, and that the law is clear that no bladed article can be carried in public.

Before the court session at Oakham Castle, on Friday, October 6th, 2023, the High Sheriff of Rutland, Geraldine Feehally, hosted a Justice Service for the County of Rutland at All Saints' Church in Oakham. The Justice Service is a traditional service of prayer and thanksgiving for all who have the responsibility of administering justice, ensuring safety and security, and promoting peaceful communities. Before the service, at 9:45 am, a procession from Oakham Castle included members of the judiciary, military, civic High Sheriff's, and other local officials walked to the church, where they were welcomed by a brass fanfare. The service was led by the Reverend Stephen Griffiths, Team Rector of Oakham. The Justice Service is an important event in Rutland, held every two years.


Oakham Castle has been used as a court of law since at least 1229, and is the longest-running seat of justice in England. In 1264, the Great Hall was damaged by fire during the Second Baron's War. However, it was repaired and continued to be used as a court of law.

In the 16th century, Oakham Castle became the seat of the Justices of the Peace for Rutland. The Justices held their regular court sessions in the hall, and also used it for other administrative purposes. Today, Oakham Castle is still used as a Crown Court once every two years. It is also a popular tourist attraction, and is open to the public for visits. In addition to its legal use, Oakham Castle has also been used for a variety of other purposes over the centuries. It has been used as a banqueting hall, a meeting place for the local government, and even a prison and a place to get married. Oakham Castle is an important part of the history of Oakham and Rutland. It is a beautiful and historic building that has played a significant role in the life of the community for centuries.
