Arlington Row, popular among tourists of the Kingdom, is a way where you align cottage, originally built in 1380, to be used as stores of wool by monks, then converted in the seventeenth century in homes for the weavers.
Many nobles and wealthy British public figures, were impressed by this place, so try to buy all the properties that face the street, or write a book, titled “The most beautiful village in England”.
Arlington Row today is “hunting ground” for tourists, who are attracted by the atmosphere of the place, is like stepping into a scene from a time past, the most common comment. The row of houses runs on a gentle hill, with a creek at the bottom, in a landscape surrounded by a very quiet, almost hushed (tourists included).
The houses are built of gray stone, that time has darkened and covered with moss and lichens, which grow up over the roofs. It seems that nothing has changed from 1600 to the present. Very photographed, even the old mill that uses the aqueous stream running through the country.
