Map of the UK

Woodside is a small civil parish in Cumberland, in north‑west England, made up of a scattering of hamlets, farms and narrow lanes. The landscape is typically rural - rolling fields, hedgerows and small copses - and is popular with walkers who use the network of public footpaths; agriculture, especially sheep and cattle farming, remains a visible part of everyday life.

Historically the community grew around farming and retains stone cottages and a parish church that speak to its vernacular character. Social life tends to centre on village events and a local hall, while many residents now combine rural living with commuting to nearby market towns; conservation of hedgerows and wildlife is a recurring local concern and point of pride.
