Hunters Lodge Farm / Slates Lodge

The building opposite the Auction Rooms, on the east side of the B4122, was originally called Slates Lodge but is today referred to as Hunters Lodge Farm on some maps. Slates was one of the earliest of the Draycot Park Lodges to be built, in 1869. In the early 1900s it was run as a laundry.
