Arlington Row at Arlington in the parish of Bibury, Gloucestershire, England was built in the late 14th century as a wool store and converted into weavers' houses in the late 17th century. It is a Grade I listed building,^[1] owned by the National Trust.^[2]

Arlington Row on Awkward Hill is a nationally notable architectural conservation area depicted on the inside cover of all United Kingdom passports.^[3] It is a popular visitor attraction,^[4] reportedly one of the most photographed Cotswold scenes.^[5]

The cottages were built in 1380 as a monastic wool store.^[6] This was converted into a row of cottages for weavers in the late 17th century, with some late 17th- or early 18th-century additions.^[1]

The cloth produced there was hung out on racks to dry on The Rack Isle opposite, before being sent on to Arlington Mill for degreasing.^[7]

It was preserved by the Royal Society of Arts in 1929 and restored by the National Trust in the 1970s.^[1]

It has been used as a film and television location, most notably for the films Stardust^[8] and Bridget Jones's Diary.^[9][10][11]

In 2017 the BBC reported that an "ugly" car parked by an elderly motorist had been vandalised, possibly by visitors who had repeatedly complained that it spoilt photographs.^[12]

The limestone two-storey buildings have gables below cruck roofs covered with slate.^[1][13]
