    Record Source: Birth note, The area around Northwick may have been settled since the Bronze Age, and there is firm evidence of Iron Age and Romano-British settlements. The area is essentially marshy, and often inundated, and habitation was necessarily sparse.By the early 17th century improvements to drainage and sea defense systems finally created the landscape that exists today. Previously extensive marshland was a barrier to the creation of large settlements.The <i>Cartularium Saxonicum<i>, published 955 AD, lists Northwick as <i>Norowican<i>. The Saxon meaning Wic is 'a place' or 'dairy farm'. In the <i>Cartularium<i> it is listed as <i>Hreodwican<i> in the <i>Domesday Book<i> as <i>Redeuuiche<i> and in the <i>Close Rolls of 1230<i> as <i>Radewic<i>. Literally a place of redes (reeds).Tradition tells of a Church of Saint George, built at Northwick at the end of the 11th century. In 1370 it is recorded that the Northwick church was in ruins. It was re-dedicated to Saint Thomas in the 15th century and tithes were paid to the Lord of the Manor of Henbury in the 16th century. Some local farmhouses have a long history, and the Kings Arms, a former coach house, dates from around 1641.
