This one is a bit borderline. It's definitely used as a placename: there's a local farm and a restaurant referencing it as such. From what I can see, it has always been just a crossroads which has marked the western edge of the Woodland town/city area, to the point where there literally is sprawl on the east side of the road and farms on the west. Topos go back a long way here, and what they show is a single building that gradually grows into few, anchoring the west end of strip development, the latter having been overwhelmed itself by the growing metro area. What I cannot see is any sense that this was ever thought of as a separate town; GHits are surprisingly thin, and inevitably refer to establish a location rather than to describe it, and the name goes back to the earliest topos. Just not seeing the notability. Mangoe ( talk) 19:29, 1 February 2021 (UTC)
There have been several wineries in or near Woodland. The oldest, appropriately enough, named the Woodland Winery ,was located at Second and Court streets and was established in 1866 by David Barnes...In 1869 two French winemakers,Eli Lallemond and Benjamin Mendessc with a strange lack of originality in nomenclature, built at Brown's Corner,a mile west of town,"Woodland Winery Number Two".. It seems like this place has existed for a long time and was "a mile west of town". I am in favour of not deleting this article. Whether we can merge it or transform it appropriately is something we can discuss on the talk page.-- DreamLinker ( talk) 14:27, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
