The village hall was built in 1930-31 and here can be found the famous Woodgreen Murals which were the 'stars' in a BBC Television programmed in 1973 called The Village on the Wall.

This is a lovely tranquil place where an early settlement grew that had no lord of the manor or vicar but it did have a proud independent people. Originally there was not much here but with the improvement of communications people started to arrive and settle and soon there were some rather splendid houses appearing and a church and a chapel arrived and Woodgreen became a real village. Even though the cricket pitch is full of humps and dips the villagers do enjoy their cricket.

The village itself has not got any large of famous houses etc, but just over the water meadows near to the River Avon and the village of Braemore with its Saxon church and Braemore House there is an ancient water mill.
