This is one thing that sometimes stumps me, but what is the best way of closing the gap here and keeping everything in Quads?
Thanks

In edit mode using edges Alt+Right Click the loop to select it.
Then press space and enter "grid" click on the "grid fill"

Cool. I didn't know that feature existed. That's solved it. :D

@DustyShinigami You'll find that Grid Fill doesn't like an odd number of edges, and doesn't tell you that's why it's not working.. just one to look out for...

Another gold standard that works with even numbers of vertices is to
- Select the Edge Loop
- Extrude Edge Loop, stop Transform with Right Click
- Merge the extruded Vertices at Center
- Select every other Edge
- Dissolve Edges
