Oaks in Charnwood is located in and is part of the Civil Parish of Charley in North West Leicestershire. The center of this small hamlet is the Church of St. James the Greater. The Parochial Parish of the Oaks in Charnwood extends to the north of the Charley CP boundary into the Shepshed CP and has recently been amalgamated with the Parochial Parish of the Church of St. Botolph in Shepshed. The hamlet of "The Oaks" as it is locally known has no defined boundary and the number of houses it contains is open to discussion. It could be argued that there are as few as seven or just over a dozen.
