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 selling craft type products.
I can't believe it's taken me this long to check out Slaughter Pen Farm. Lot's of possibilities.
Fantastic name too.

Slaughter Pen Farm
Into the Field
You are standing near the center of the most successful Union attack at the Battle of Fredericksburg. Two Union divisions, Gen. George G. Meade's on your left and Gen. John Gibbon's on your right, advanced into this field and soon encountered the "Virginia ditch fence" visible on your right and left. The ditch fences, dug by farmers to divide their fields and to promote drainage, were much steeper, deeper, and wider during the battle. Union soldiers scrambled across this and other obstacles however they could.
After Union troops crossed the ditch fences, converging Confederate artillery fire stopped them cold. The Federals laid down in the fields in front of you as Union cannons replied in kind. Both sides suffered heavy losses in men, horses, and equipment. When the fire was too hot for the men of one Confederate battery, its commander "wrapped his battle flag around him, walking up and down among his deserted guns" to shame his gunners back into position.
"The trees around our guns were literally torn to pieces and the ground plowed up. I have been several times covered with dirt, and had it knocked n my eyes and mouth." — "Ben," Pee Dee (South Carolina) Artillery, CSA
"Being no breeze to carry away the smoke of our guns, the gunners on firing would quickly run to either flank to clear the great volume of smoke hanging in front of their muzzles that they might see where their shells were going." — Pvt. Bates Alexander. 7th Pennsylvania Reserves, USA
As the Union troops advanced into this field, terrain slowed them and Southern cannon fire brought them to a halt.
"We blew up one of their caissons," remembered one Union soldier, "causing a cheer to break forth from our lines. But soon thereafter they blew up one of ours." This 1863 image was taken on Marye's Heights, a few miles to the north. - Courtesy National Archives
Just prior to the Union assault, 24-year-old Confederate Major John Pelham advanced one cannon a mile to your left and wrought havoc on the Union lines. Dangerously exposed and outgunned, Pelham disrupted the Union attack for nearly an hour and emerged unscathed. Of Pelham's actions, Gen. Robert E. Lee said, "It is glorious to see such courage in one so young." - Courtesy Library of Congress
The slaughter of a cow to fulfil a feast, gives a narrative parallel between the recent bloodshed of human beings to achieve democracy and freedom.
Animal Equality is taking a stand against the deregulation of Brazil's meat industry by exposing the cruel practices occurring within 'backyard' slaughterhouses. Investigators have documented severe animal mistreatment at the time of their slaughter as well as unsanitary environments which present a health hazard.
These images show a future where slaughterhouses are left to regulate themselves under Brazil’s Self-Control Bill. This harmful bill will put nearly 7 billion of Brazil’s farmed animals will be at an even greater risk of cruelty, and public health at risk.

Yes, this is an actual place, for those of you not familiar with DE. We couldn't actually get to the beach because it was all private property but we had to at least get a pic of the sign.
