Westwick is a hamlet in Cambridgeshire, to be found to the northwest of Cambridge. Earthworks here suggest that it is a shrunken mediæval village.
History
A large grassed area of earthworks, on the west side of Oakington Road and north of Oakington Brook, is believed to contain houses, track ways and ponds that originate from the Middle Ages.[1] The earthworks are very easily observed from Oakington Road.
