Cottesmore Rutland Map

About Cottesmore

Cottesmore breathes the quiet spirit of Rutland's heartland. It lies 6.4 km north-east of Oakham (from Oakham: bearing 42°T, OS grid SK 902 135), and is situated south-east of Barrow village. The land around Cottesmore, a gentle swell under wide skies, has long been shaped by agriculture, its fields a patchwork quilt of greens and golds, particularly when the afternoon sun slants low. At the village's core, the church of St. Nicholas stands as a sentinel of enduring stone, its tower a familiar marker against the horizon. The air here often carries the faint scent of damp earth and distant woodsmoke, a comforting perfume of rural continuity. The village green, a well-trod expanse, offers a focal point for community life, its surface smoothed by generations of footsteps.
