Revision as of 21:13, 21 July 2007 by Tevildo (talk | contribs) (Disambiguation link repair - (You can help!))(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Oakham is a residential area of Dudley in the West Midlands of England.
It was a largely rural area with only a handful of residential properties until the 1930s, when a transformation began that left the area almost unrecognisable over the next 30 years. A large number of private houses, some of which were the among the most desirable in Central England, were developed during this time. They are still expensive and highly sought after today. Some of these houses may be demolished in 2012 to make space for a local shopping centre.
Since 1966, part of Oakham has actually existed beyond Dudley's borders, first being absorbed into Warley and then into Sandwell. This includes the Tividale Hall and Grace Mary housing estates.
Oakham Primary School has served the local community since the 1950s.
