The pictures on the right will, I hope, give you a flavour of the village. These can be seen again with many others on the "Tour" page later in the site. The village lies some 4 miles N N:W of the County Town of Bedford, and is surrounded by the meanderings of the River Ouse. Until the late 1960`s its population had remained at about 500 people for 40 years (see the history page) but planning approval was given to a local landowner to develop the centre of the village, and within 20 years the population had grown to 2,500 odd. To se a road map of the village and its surrounding area, click Oakley If any visitor to these pages has any comments or suggestions, then I would be pleased to hear from them, by email using the link on the left. The site opens with a history of the village, followed by a pictorial tour. There are separate pages containing draft Parish Council minutes and the Parish Council Newsletter, a village directory, a page devoted to local places of interest, with finally, links to other sites, and the weather in the village. To access any of these, please click the link you require in the panel on the left. I appreciate your visit to the Oakley Village web site. If you wish to comment upon the site in any way, then feel free to email me as suggested above. The Oakley site is a member of the British & Irish villages webring: |
