Langham is a small village and civil parish tucked into the rolling countryside of Rutland, a short distance from the market town of Oakham and within easy reach of Rutland Water. The centre is compact, with traditional stone cottages and farmsteads set among arable fields and hedgerows, giving a strong rural character typical of England's smallest historic county.
Historic buildings and a medieval parish church give the village a sense of continuity, while the local economy remains rooted in agriculture alongside a growing number of commuters who work in nearby centres such as Leicester and Nottingham. Community life is active for a settlement of its size, organised around the village hall, church activities and seasonal events that reinforce a close‑knit, conservation‑minded population.
