Description

The bee-boles at Slathurst Farm are located in the garden wall to the south of the farmhouse. The garden is surrounded by a stone wall that features two gable-headed recesses, which were used as bee-boles. These structures are possibly from the 16th century, although the wall itself seems to be of a later date.
