About Lower Slaughter

Lower Slaughter's ancient honey-coloured stone cottages, clustered along the banks of the River Eye, offer a timeless tableau of Cotswold charm. It lies 4.1 km south-west of Stow-on-the-Wold (from Stow-on-the-Wold: bearing 220°T, OS grid SP 165 225), and is situated east-south-east of Upper Slaughter village. The gentle murmur of the river, a constant companion, flows past the village green where the ancient Ford is a focal point, its waters reflecting the soft English sky. Once a place of industry, the old mill, now a museum, stands as a quiet sentinel to a bygone era, its waterwheel still a striking feature against the weathered stone. The air here carries a subtle scent of damp earth and wild mint, a fragrance born of centuries of rural life. Lower Slaughter, a jewel in the Cotswold landscape, invites contemplation with its unhurried pace and enduring beauty.
