The first mention of the Oaken place-name was in 1086 when it was listed in the Domesday book as Ache. Its origin appears to be from the Old English, ācum - (place of) the oaks.[1] Oaken lies just one mile west of Codsall where the population taken at the 2011 census can be found. It is home to Oaken Terrace Nursing Home, a large nursing home situated just off Oaken Drive. Oaken's only pub is The Oaken Arms, a Vintage Inns pub on Holyhead Road - formerly The Foaming Jug, it re-opened in November 2010.[2] References1. ^David Horovitz, "The Place-names of Staffordshire" (2006) 2. ^http://www.fandbpartnership.com/news The F&B Partnership, "New opening Vintage Inn pub The Oaken Arms" (2010-11-13) External links{{Commons category inline|Oaken}}{{Staffordshire-geo-stub}} 1 : Villages in Staffordshire |
