A weathered gravestone in a grassy area displays a heartfelt tribute to George Hale, who departed Wood-side High in 1821. The inscription reads, "This Tawny Lye waiting the Resurrection of the Remains of George Hale, of Wood-side High, who departed this Life the 9th Day of July 1821. Aged 36 Years. Waited long and bravely fought the LORD, and patiently did I hear. At length he did to me accompany My voice and ear to hear. ALSO Mary the Widow of the above George Hale afterwards the Wife of Joseph Suoden of Alkenhow who parted this Life at the age of 65 years."
