The 1885 Ordnance Survey map says:

Oakham 5

But it certainly isn't any more - and it doesn't tally with the inscription on the milestone anyway.

The road that this milestone stands by now disappears into Rutland Water, a man made reservoir.
Condition: Worn

Material: Stone

Inscription:
Left:- To Oakham III Miles. Right:- To Stamford VIII Miles.


Name of road: Un-named Road, off A606.

Date placed: Not listed
