Norman is an electoral ward in Ashford, Kent, in south‑east England. Predominantly residential, it combines post‑war and more recent housing with local shops, primary schools and community facilities, and sits within easy reach of the town centre and the transport links that have shaped Ashford.
The ward has a mixed population and a number of active community groups, with nearby green spaces and some small commercial or light industrial units. Its character reflects the wider history of Ashford as a market and railway town: many residents commute to London or work locally in retail, services and manufacturing, while local events and churches help maintain a strong community identity.
