EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historical market cross at Oakham, a town that was once part of Rutland but is now located in Leicestershire. Dating back to the 19th century, this iconic landmark stands as a testament to the rich history and heritage of this region in England's East Midlands.
The intricate design and craftsmanship of the market cross are truly remarkable, showcasing the skilled workmanship of artisans from centuries past. As visitors gaze upon this architectural marvel, they can't help but feel transported back in time to an era when markets were bustling with activity and traders bartered for goods under its protective shadow.
Oakham's market cross serves as a reminder of the town's importance as a center for commerce and trade throughout its storied past. The striking silhouette against the sky evokes a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when life moved at a slower pace and community gatherings were held in reverence.
As we admire this photograph by Rights Managed, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by those who came before us. Their contributions have shaped Oakham into the charming town it is today, blending elements of both Rutlandshire and Leicestershire seamlessly into one picturesque destination worth exploring.
