Slow Court

Slow Court is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century. It is constructed from local stone that is cut and squared, with random coursing and Ham stone dressings. Concrete ring beams are now visible at the first floor and wall plate levels. The roof is covered with double Roman clay tiles and features coped gables, along with brick chimney stacks at each end.

The building has an "L" plan and is two stories high with a four-bay east front. The entrance door, located in the second bay, is boarded and set in a heavy frame. The ground floor windows are oak ovolo mould mullioned windows, consisting of three and four lights, and have label moulds above them. The first floor windows also have stone mullions and jambs that match the ground floor, although there is no window in bay two, and one label mould is damaged by the ring beam. A small timber window is present in the north wall, along with additional mullioned windows on the rear extension. There is a buttress on the south gable.

The interior has not been seen. Slow Court is said to be a freehold estate founded in 1238 by the de la Slo family and was the site of the Manor House of Sloo or Sleu. The property has oak panelled rooms and was undergoing major repairs as of February 1983.
