History

Originally a downland farming community, Woolage Green consists of some 36 dwellings including one pub, the Two Sawyers.

The village was heavily wooded until the destruction of Woolwich Wood in the 1960s, to make way for farmland.

Historical maps and records also show the village as Woollage Green and Woolwich Green.
