 Westwood was once a western locality of Normandy, like Willey Green within Worplesdon, but has almost fallen out of use.As a parish, the history of Normandy is the combined history of its constituent hamlets which in modern times include Christmas Pie, Flexford, Willey Green, Wyke, Pinewoods and Normandy proper.The derivation of the village name of Normandy itself is the least sure.
