The name of the village of Lower Slaughter stems from the Old English name for a wet land 'slough' or 'slothre' (Old English for muddy place) upon which it lies. This quaint village sits beside the little Eye stream and is known for its unspoilt limestone cottages in the traditional Cotswold style.
The stream running through the village is crossed by two small bridges.

A photo from a lovely few days in the Cotswolds. This is the Old Mill in Lower Slaughter. They do know how to do perfect English villages in this area. My photo doesn't do it justice.
In The Cotswolds
I have just completed 2 one-day courses - I now know how to shoot in manual, and what to do with RAW files. I can also do various things in Photoshop, and I understand layers - lets hope it all sticks, and my work improves!
The name of the village derives form the Old English term "slough" meaning "wet land"
The village is built on both banks of the River Eye, a slow-moving stream crossed by two footbridges, which also flows through Upper Slaughter. At the west end of the village there is a 19th-century water mill with an undershot waterwheel and a chimney for additional steam power. There is a ford where the river widens in the village and several small stone footbridges join the two sides of the community. While the mill is built of red brick most of the 16th and 17th century homes in the village use Cotswold limestone and are adorned with mullioned windows and often with other embellishments such as projecting gables.

The Cotswolds town of Lower Slaughter is built on both banks of the River Eye and is thought to have been inhabited for at least 1000 years.
One of our favorite activities from our trip to the UK was wandering the Cotswolds on public bridleways. England has “public rights of way” which are paths where anyone is allowed to pass. These often go through the countryside, fields, and even backyards. One of our days in the Cotswolds we took a trek via a public bridleway from Lower Slaughter to Stow-on-the-Wold to Wyck Rissington to Bourton-on-the-Water and then back to Lower Slaughter.
The Cotswold village of Lower Slaughter in March...a time with very few visitors and you can have the place to yourself
One wonders at the name Slaughter given to this beautiful little town on the Cotswold's, UK.
Apparently there are two theories- the name Slaughter comes from the old English word “Slothre” meaning muddy, and so it became known as muddy crossings of the River Eye. Alternatively, Upper Slaughter Manor dates back to the Saxon Period. Sometime in the 12th.
It is a gorgeous little town with quaint buildings, a mill and the river Eye flowing through the middle. A place where time has almost stopped, and horse riders amble along the footpath without the rumble of cars (no cars allowed). My wonderful friend Paul took us here from Wales for a day trip and we visited all the small villages in the Cotswold's. A magnificent day.

House in either Upper Slaughter or Lower Slaughter in Gloustershire, England, 2017. I love the old stone buildings and the English gardens I saw in the Cotswolds, which are second only to the people there and the beauty of the area. I cannot wait to visit again.
Lower Slaughter a fascinating name, which derives from 'miry place'. The link is the tiny River Eye, tributary to the nearby river Windrush. Lower Slaughter is just off the Fosse Way. The village is considered to be one of the prettiest in the area and is well photographed and the village has been used for filming and productions.
Lower Slaughter is een zeer pittoresk, typisch Engels dorp in de Cotswolds, Gloucestershire, bekend om zijn honingkleurige stenen huisjes uit de 16e en 17e eeuw en de rustige rivier de Eye die door het centrum stroomt. Gelegen nabij Bourton-on-the-Water, is het beroemd om zijn onveranderde watermolen uit de 19e eeuw, kleine stenen voetbruggetjes en vredige, schilderachtige omgeving.
Lower Slaughter is a highly picturesque, quintessentially English village in the Cotswolds, Gloucestershire, renowned for its 16th-17th century honey-colored stone cottages and the tranquil River Eye flowing through its centre. Located near Bourton-on-the-Water, it is famous for its unchanged, 19th-century water mill, small stone footbridges, and peaceful,, scenic atmosphere.
Not the most inviting of village names but certainly one of the most attractive locations in the Cotswolds. It even manages to look cosy in Winter (must go back in Summer ..)

Not sure what this is now but used to the the Slaughter and May building on London Wall where my sister and brother in law used to work.
Hmm 'Former Slaughter' sounds a great name for a band or album...
