The Parish Church of Saint Peter
Upper Slaughter is a village in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, 4 miles south west of Stow-on-the-Wold.
St Peter's Church dates back to the 12th century, containing elements of Saxon and Norman architecture, the church also contains memorials dedicated to the Slaughter Family.
A mill is recorded in the Doomsday Book of 1086 on the site of the The Old Mill. In the 14th Century it had begun to be known as Slaughter Mill and by the 18th Century had become independent of the manorial estate.
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 it's unspoilt limestone cottages in the traditional Cotswold style.
The stream running through the village is crossed by two small bridges and the local attraction is a converted mill with original water wheel

I miss England, and I look forward to visiting again when travel is safer.

The wonderful Cotswold village of Lower Slaughter (Slaughter comes from the Anglo-Saxon 'Slough' meaning 'Muddy Place").
Flipped this Horseshoe Crab and it immediately made its way to the Delaware River.

I started off posting this sequence of photographs, taken on a recent visit to the Cotswolds, with a photograph taken in the beautiful village of Lower Slaughter, Gloucestershire.
The image I wanted was a composition that included this Grade II listed 18th century clapper bridge, known as 'Up Stream Bridge'.
However, I seem to have arrived on a particularly busy day and there was a seemingly endless stream of visitors stopping on the bridge to take 'selfies'.
So, not being too far from where I was staying, I decided to head back later in the day and try again (an added bonus was a change in direction of the early evening sunshine).

In this case, a 'Slaughter' is a 'muddy place' - not that it's muddy here these days - the perfect Cotswold village!
In 1448, the English marched towards Scottland to retailate against border incursions. They chose to set up camp between river Sark and Kirtle waterway. The battle started well with longbows hitting the Scots from afar until the Scotts charged and many British were drowned trying to escape.

The wonderful Cotswold village of Lower Slaughter (Slaughter comes from the Anglo-Saxon 'Slough' meaning 'Muddy Place") - where low stone bridges cross the River Eye.
FWIW, although Flickr identifies this as being in Lower Slaughter, it's actually in Upper Slaughter. And some (maybe all) of the photos on Google Maps labeled Upper Slaughter are of Lower Slaughter (the one with the mill). Confused? Well both are well worth a visit and there is a public footpath of less than a mile between them.
The village is also one of the "doubly thankful" villages from which all their then members of the armed forces survived World War I and World War II.
One of Kentucky’s most beautiful waterfalls also happens to have one of the strangest names. I want to go back this fall to photograph the waterfall with some color

After about a year, I slaughtered my piggy bank. I regularly sort out 2 euro coins and 1, 2 and 5 cent coins and throw them into the piggy bank. I then take the coins to the Bundesbank and get notes in return.
Just guess what I get. It was actually an amount without a decimal point!
Nach ca. einem Jahr habe ich mein Sparschwein geschlachtet. Ich sortiere regelmäßig 2 Euro-Münzen und 1, 2 und 5 Cent-Münzen aus und werfe sie ins Sparschwein. Ich bringe die Münzen dann zur Bundesbank und bekomme dafür Scheine.
Tippt doch mal, was ich bekommen habe. Es war tatsächlich ein Betrag ohne Kommastelle!
