Hampstead Norreys / Norris lies on the river Pang, seven miles north-east of Newbury.
In the Middle Ages it was named Hampstead Sifrewast after its Norman lord, changing to Hampstead Norreys in 1450, when the village was acquired by the Norreys family from Bray.
The Norris spelling was used more in the past, but Norreys tends to prevail today.
