Glanvill's Close occupies a quiet ridge of high ground where the Devon air holds a sharp, clean edge. It lies 4.4 miles south of Crediton (from Crediton: bearing 170°T, OS grid SX 842 933), and is situated north-east of Pathfinder Village village. The land here slopes away with an intentional gravity, drawing the eye toward the distant, shadowed hollow of Lillybrook Bottom. During the autumn months, the low-angled sun catches the slate rooftops of Glanvill's Close, turning the grey stone into a soft, bruised violet. To the north-east, the dense canopy of Whitestone Wood acts as a windbreak, holding the silence of the high ground against the prevailing westerly gales. The soil is heavy and clay-rich, demanding a stubborn sort of industry from those who tend the surrounding hedgerows. One senses a stark, functional beauty in the way the local lanes narrow to accommodate the ancient boundaries of the fields. Everything here seems held in a precise, unadorned balance, far removed from the clamour of the busier lowlands.
