Rutland County Museum的点评
点评：The Rutland County Museum is a superb resource and well worth a visit.
I found myself in Oakham with a spare hour and decided to visit. There is a video presentation on Rutland Water (it was originally called Empingham Reservoir) and the controversy surrounding its construction. Today, at first glance, it looks like a large natural lake. Back in the middle of the last century however, the area was farmland, a valley with a river flowing through. As the population of England increased - and was forecast to increase substantially more - the requirement for more water was realised and plans were made to increase reserves. The presentation is fascinating and a trip to Rutland Water (just a few miles away) afterwards will be enriched as a result.
There are many other exhibits and a single visit will be insufficient to appreciate all that the museum has to offer. My eyes were drawn to the gallows (see photo) and the accompanying text. Moving. Thought provoking.
There is parking right outside (cost involved, FREE for disabled badge holders) with dedicated spaces for museum visitors. FREE parking may be found (time restrictions) on neighbouring streets. Entry is FREE (donations gladly accepted) and there is a shop. It's not far from the centre of town and so easily accessible by public transport.
All staff were really helpful, friendly and knowledgeable.

翻译：拉特兰郡博物馆资源丰富，非常值得一游。
我在奥克姆正好有空闲时间，于是决定去参观。博物馆里播放了一段关于拉特兰水库（最初名为恩平厄姆水库）及其建造争议的视频介绍。如今，它乍一看就像一个巨大的天然湖泊。然而，在上世纪中叶，这片区域曾是一片农田，一条河流穿过山谷。随着英格兰人口的增长——预计还会大幅增长——人们意识到需要更多水资源，于是制定了增加水库储量的计划。视频介绍非常精彩，之后去拉特兰水库（仅几英里外）的旅程也会因此更加丰富多彩。
博物馆还有许多其他展品，一次参观不足以欣赏到博物馆的全部内容。我的目光被绞刑架（见图）和相关文字所吸引。它感人至深，发人深省。
博物馆外设有停车场（需付费，持有残疾人证免费），并为博物馆参观者提供专用停车位。附近街道有免费停车位（有时间限制）。免费入场（欢迎捐款），并设有商店。距离市中心不远，公共交通便利。
所有工作人员都非常乐于助人、友好且知识渊博。
