Oakham

Village

Oakham is an area of Dudley, England, situated on the peak of Turners Hill, the highest point in the West Midlands county. All of the area was historically in Dudley but in 1966 approximately half of it, including the Tividale Hall and Grace Mary housing estates, was incorporated into the county borough of Warley, which in turn merged with West Bromwich in 1974 to form Sandwell.
