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.
