 sold Wodewaye in 1951 and the Griffith family became owners until around 1992.The name Wodewaye may have been used by the Whalleys from the romantic notion that Woodaway derived from "Woden's Way", rather than a colloquial use of the word "wood", however another possibility suggested by the 1890 and 1860 OS maps is that there was another house called "Woodway" further up Woodway Road, next to "Luchana" and the "Grove".Later its name was changed due to the endless confusion between Woodway House and Woodway or Wodeway Cottage.
