Arlington is a Cotswold village in the parish of Bibury, Gloucestershire, England.
History
In 1066, Arlington had two mills and continued to thrive, driven by the wool trade, until the 18th century.
Arlington was the ancestral home of John Custis II, who emigrated to the Colony of Virginia and named his grand, four-story brick mansion (built in 1675) in Northampton County, Virginia, "Arlington" after his hometown.
Landmarks
Arlington Row is a nationally notable architectural conservation area featured on the inside cover of all United Kingdom passports. Originally built in 1380 as a monastic wool store, the structure was later converted into a row of cottages for weavers in the 17th century. Its picturesque setting has made it a popular film and television location, most notably for the films Stardust and Bridget Jones's Diary.
Arlington Manor was built in the 17th century. It has an adjoining 18th century barn.
Religious sites
On the green is a Baptist church built in 1833.
