"That, on the application of Mr S. A. Johnstone, two new streets on his property off Shankhill Road, near Woodvale Park, be named Woodvale Street and Enfield Street". (9 January 1889).
Woodvale Street takes its name according to Marshall from a residence called “Woodville” on the Shankill Road. The Belfast Commercial Chronicle of Wednesday 30 August 1820 contains an advert for the sale of Woodville House.
