- Before 1900
Normandy in the Press presents a past view and happenings
of the village as seen from selected reports and articles in the local papers.
The reader should note that until 1955 Normandy was predominantly part of
Ash, Willey Green was part of Worplesdon and a small part of Flexford was
in Wanborough.
The researched material held at County Libraries and Record Offices was
hand-copied over a number of years by society member Peter Trevaskis. Those
notes have been subsequently transcribed by members: Alan Norris, Eira and
James Nursaw; Emma Rafferty; Peter Blakiston and Stephen Cranstone.
Whilst every effort has been made to ensure correctness in the copying
and transcribing, readers are advised to refer to the original newspaper
source for the full account.

- Ash Parish Council Meeting
Tuesday 15 January, 1895
- The Meeting Place - After some discussion, it was decided that the
next meeting of the Council, and every third meeting after, be held at
Normandy. Mr Mclaren strongly opposed this, contending that they should
have one fixed place of meeting. The Chairman also thought there were reasons
why they should not go perambulating about the district. The motion by
Mr Emmings, however, was carried, and Normandy electors will have a chance
of being present at an occasional meeting of the Council.
