Created a custom fact which only seems to work when not executable - 
etc/ansible/facts.d/preference.fact

[new facts]
material =  concrete
structure = square

When the preference.fact is set to executable I get the following error - 

TASK [Gathering Facts] 
*********************************************************
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "cmd": 
"/etc/ansible/facts.d/preference.fact", "failed": true, "msg": "[Errno 8] 
Exec format error", "rc": 8}

Fixed that by setting the fact to not executable and the playbook runs fine

My second question is how to drill into the fact to reference each fact 
separately if i need to ?
 I cant seem to drill in any further than -  debug: msg="Custom facts are  
{{ansible_local.preference}}


Playbook
---
- hosts: localhost
  gather_facts: on
  tasks:
    - name: Display custom facts
      debug: msg="Custom facts are  {{ansible_local.preference.new facts}}"
