Here’s a detailed and richly informative description of the place, its history, architecture, setting, and what makes it special: Upper Slaughter lies in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, in the South West of England. It is about 4 miles (6.4 km) south-west of Stow-on-the-Wold.  It’s situated just about one mile upstream from its twin village, Lower Slaughter, and is near other well-known Cotswold villages such as Bourton-on-the-Water, Upper Swell, Lower Swell, and Daylesford.  The River Eye (sometimes called Slaughter Brook) runs through Upper Slaughter, flowing gently through the village and beyond to Lower Slaughter.  The name “Slaughter” in this context does not refer to killing, but comes from the Old English “slohtre,” meaning “muddy place” or “wet land.” This likely relates to its proximity to waterways, wetlands, or soft ground.  There is some archaeological evidence suggesting settlement in the area in Roman times: for example, Romano-British burial mounds have been found on Copse Hill.  Upper Slaughter retains a very strong sense of time-past — many of its buildings are centuries old and quite well preserved. Here are some of the architectural highlights: St Peter’s Church The Anglican parish church, dedicated to St Peter, dates (in origins) from the 11th-12th century; it incorporates Norman and sometimes even older/Saxon derived elements. Features of interest include a 12th-century tower arch, a 14th-century niche for an Easter Sepulchre, memorial brasses (especially connected to the Slaughter family), and carved tombs.  Upper Slaughter Manor & Lords of the Manor Hotel The Manor is a late medieval house (parts dating back to the 15th century) with later Tudor additions and an Elizabethan frontage. It has been restored in parts and functions now as a private house; nearby, the former rectory has become the Lords of the Manor Hotel.  Eyford House This is a fine house in the village, built in the 17th century (or late 17th), though with influences that draw from earlier styles. It was named England’s favourite house in 2011 by Country Life.  The Square and Cottages At the heart of the village is “The Square,” a grassy open area surrounded by traditional golden-Cotswold-stone cottages, some of which were almshouses. These were reconstructed in 1906 under Sir Edwin Lutyens, an architect known for his sensitive restorations and designs. Since that time, no major building work has been done, which helps maintain the unspoilt character of the village.  Old School House Built in the mid-19th century, it retains many of its original features, including the school bell.  Methodist Chapel / Pottery There is a small Methodist chapel built in 1865, now used as a pottery.  Castle Mound On the north edge of the village, there are remnants of a Norman motte‐and‐bailey castle — the earthworks (castle mound) mark the site. Pottery fragments from the 13th-14th centuries have been found in excavations. • The village is often described as “unspoilt”. Because there has been virtually no new building work since the early 20th century (e.g. the square’s cottages restored in 1906), its appearance is remarkably consistent.  • The traditional Cotswold stone — the warm honey-coloured limestone — permeates the architecture: houses, church, bridges etc., tying everything together visually.  • It feels very rural, isolated in a pleasant way: small roads, limited facilities, no big shops in the village itself. To get groceries, museums, or bigger amenities you go to nearby larger villages or towns like Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold or Moreton-in-Marsh.
