Gorrenberry Jubilee Wood
Background
Gorrenberry is an ecological restoration project which aims to restore much of the biodiversity of a substantial area in the Scottish Southern Uplands, while maintaining a varied pattern of economic activity at a sustainable level.
In 2011 Gorrenberry was a 935 hectare hill farm including four dwellings and two groups of steadings on the Hermitage Water, Roxburghshire, Scottish Borders (55.266827N, 2.845836W). It was purchased in March 2011 by Jane Bower and Ken Lyall. The farm is approximately 20 miles south of Hawick and is reached by the unclassified road between the A7 and the B6399 signposted to Hermitage Castle.

Ellwood Arms and Forebears map;
As one can see that Cumberland is a part of Cumbria.
Want to thank James V. Elliott who has done excellent work with the Border Reiver, Y-DNA Project for the following;
It is felt that these name migrated up from an area near the southeast coast where the Anglo-Saxons entered.
Given the following Elwood/Ellwood name distributions;
It is felt the wold, would, could be of a Yorkshire Wolds/Woulds influence.
Where;
Yorkshire Wolds
The Yorkshire Wolds are low hills in the counties of East Riding of Yorkshire and North Yorkshire in north-eastern England. The name also applies to the district in which the hills lie. Wikipedia
WOOD;
a : a dense growth of trees usually greater in extent than a grove and smaller than a forest —often used in plural but singular or plural in construction. merriam-webster.com
It is felt wold and wood are independent entomology but near meaning and similar pronunciation it is felt that in El- that wold and would became wood.
Ellwood locality;
There are very few Ellwood in Scotland as compared to England so Ellwood should be considered an English name mainly of Cumbria-Cumberland.
It is felt that wold may be a low German version of wald meaning forest.
Coat of Arms for
It is felt that the Elwood/Ellwood Coat of Arms has York region origins.

The meaning keeps changing on me.
Would like to reiterated on such an excellent job James V. Elliott has done on Elliot variant DNA.
It is felt because of his work, that the Cumbria, Ellwood, came from around York, where the land was more moorland, open spaced. The name Elwold, and Elwould, where wold and would are for moorland. When they moved to Cumbria, the land became more wooded, and for living in these regions of wood, the name Ellwood, came dominate in the Cumbria region.
The name Elwald, is of the forest, but when the Elwald migrated from the Liddesdale region to around Shelkirk it is felt this area may have made a name change from Elwald to Elwauld and Ellot, where Ellot became popular in Liddesdale in the second half of the sixteenth century.
