Houghall, a quiet hamlet in County Durham, feels as though it has been gently breathed into the landscape. It lies 2.5 km south-south-east of Durham (from Durham: bearing 158°T, OS grid NZ 278 403), and is situated west-south-west of Shincliffe village. The land here rolls with a patient grace, the fields catching the soft, diffused light that often bathes the North East, turning the hedgerows into dark, velvet ribbons against the paler green. Though small, Houghall holds a sense of enduring presence, a quiet testament to the lives that have unfolded upon this stretch of earth. One can almost hear the whisper of footsteps from generations past on the lanes that connect it to the wider county.
