Arnott's Grove is a townland in South-East County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. Area 82:2:5 including 2:0:32 water, Back Lough, Rossbrick Lough.
Etymology
There is a local tradition that this small townland was the site of a castle hence the name of Arnott. Nothing remains of the castle though there are some humps in the ground which might mark the site. No trace of the surname Arnott has surfaced so far.
Location
This townland is tucked in between the larger townlands of Rossbrick and Loughgare and originally the lane way to it was from the Golan Road through Rossbrick but the present resident has made a new laneway out unto Drumaa Lane which gives him access to the New Line / Dernawilt Road.

Crudden Family
This little bit is a tale of two emigrants. When the Elliott stone was being photographed in St McCartan’s graveyard, another small plain grey stone was noticed because it was so different.
It was that of Patrick Crudden, New York, PVT 1 US INF December 9 1937.
His brother Edward whose name is on the family headstone, served as a warder in Sing Sing Prison, New York. Judging by the names on that Headstone, the Samuel Crudden in the Griffiths Valuation 1862 was their father.
In the 1901 Census there is an Anne Crudden. The photograph below is of ? Crudden and was taken outside her house at Arnotts Grove.
