History
The village was first mentioned between 1381 and 1383 as "to Westorpe", and means "western village" as viewed from Ees.[1] Westdorp was home to 95 people in 1840.[2]
In 2002, a subsidy of €450,000 was granted to repair an hunebed (dolmen) in Borger. The farmers of Westdorp gathered big boulders, the heaviest weight 8 tonnes, and built their own hunebed in the village square. The municipality did not know what to make it of it, but did grant a building permits afterwards.[3][2]
