Arlington Row is one of Bibury’s most recognisable lanes and is managed by the National Trust. This historic row of cottages dates back to as early as the 14^th Century when it was used as a monastic wool store. In the 17^th Century it was converted into a row of weavers’ cottages.

The River Coln flows through Bibury, next to an expanse of boggy water meadow. This area is known as Rack Isle. It got its name because wool was once hung out to dry on racks after it had been washed in Arlington Row. Rack Isle lies at the heart of the village and is an important habitat for wildlife. It is home to many unusual plants and creatures, including water voles, kingfishers, grass snakes, and dragonflies. A herd of Belted Galloway cattle can also be seen here during the late summer. They help to conserve the important wildlife habitat by encouraging wild flowers to grow.
