According to Raine, writing in 1888, "The house stands, as of old, with a dark wood behind it, facing the south, and on the bank of the Derwent. The white Avails contrast well with the tall forest trees to the rear. On the opposite bank of the river are the remains of Wressle, the ruined castle of the Percies, and in front is Hagthorpe, with its manor-house and moat. The gardens at Woodhall are laid out in the Dutch style. To the taste of Mr. Graham is due a fine terraced walk which runs along the bank of the Derwent (209).
