Close House remains a modest collection of dwellings that commands a quiet authority over the rising terrain of County Durham. It lies 0.8 miles north of Shildon (from Shildon: bearing 4°T, OS grid NZ 231 279), and is situated north-north-west of Eldon village.

Close House endures as a remnant of an industrial past, where the heavy, coal-stained memory of the North East meets the persistent green of the present day. Nearby, the waters of Dene Beck carve a narrow, insistent path through the earth, marking the land with a rhythmic, liquid persistence. The air here holds a crisp, bracing quality, unburdened by the clamour of the busier neighbouring hubs. Those who walk the lanes near Close House find the landscape stripped of artifice, offering only the raw, honest texture of the soil and the open sky.
