==History== The village is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086, since when the De-Colwick, Musters and Byron families have all owned the village. The etymology of the place-name is from Old English wic "specialised industrial farm" with an uncertain first element, possibly col "coal", although there have never been coal mines in the area. Another derivation is from the area being a dairy farm.
