QUEEN ELIZABETH II FIELDS IN TRUST

QUEEN ELIZABETH II FIELDS IN TRUST

Oakham Town Council has proposed that the area of open space between the housing estate and the Oakham by-pass to the east of the town should be nominated for the Queen Elizabeth II Fields in Trust initiative.

NEW DEVELOPMENT AT FORMER VALE OF CATMOSE COLLEGE SITE

NEW DEVELOPMENT AT FORMER VALE OF CATMOSE COLLEGE SITE

The Council has proposed the following names for the new development:

Whole development - West Vale Park

Roads - John Clare Close
               Coleridge Way

The Council felt that the names of the new roads should have some educational significance given the former use of the site and its proximity to the new Catmose College. 

The theme of poets was decided on and John Clare also has significant local connections.
