Lower Slaughter is one of many beautiful Cotswold villages. This old mill, photographed in 1997, takes us back many years in history to a time that was already disappearing when described by Thomas Hardy in his late 19th Century novels. The helter skelter of modern life causes us to yearn for the enduring peacefulness that we mistakenly believe was typical for people in villages such as this one many years ago. Realizing this, however, does not take away from the beauty of the scene.
