Normandy Cricket Club were formed in 1896. After spells at fields near Westwood Farm and in School Lane, they moved to Hunts Hill Road, part of Normandy Common, in 1947 when Lower Ground was ready for use. Upper Ground, a second square on adjoining land, followed in 1991. Despite being a village club, Normandy have attained ECB Premier League status.
