 North Bitchburn was a pit village just outside of Bishop Auckland near Howden-Le-Wear near my home of Shildon.

All that remains of the village is a row of terrace houses named Low Row consisting of 20 houses.

There are also estates called Wellgarth Court, North Bitchburn Terrace and Hillside Court.

There is one public house, a Methodist chapel and one shop within the village centre. The public house is named 'The Red Lion'.
