The present day inhabitants of Naranamoozhy are the migrated farmers and rehabilitated people.

Remnants of an old temple and pond were found at a place called Edakkunnam. The ''Aarattu'' ceremony associated with the festivals of Edamuri temple was conducted at the place 'Arattumannu'. At present, the people here live in religious harmony and prosperity with mutual understanding.{{cn|date=November 2021}}<br />
