From the Wikipedia article
Woodhouse Close Estate or locally "Woodhouse" is a post-war former council housing estate, located to the south of Bishop Auckland, County Durham, England. It is not to be confused with a nearby hamlet named "Woodhouses". The estate was built to house hundreds of families who were displaced due to their villages being ruled a "Category D" Village. In an area classified as D, this meant that no future development would be permitted, and property would be acquired and demolished. Woodhouse Close now has multiple villages which are situated on the outskirts of the estate such as Tindale Crescent and Etherley Dene.
