Welcome to the Old Catton Society

We hold monthly meetings and talks for our enthusiastic membership.  We have a programme of eleven monthly meetings a year with a variety of speakers, and outings of historical interest.

Over the past twenty years we have gathered an extensive archive of village history, We publish information and photographs on this website and we plan to include more items from our archives.

We have published three books on aspects of the history of the village.

In accordance with the constitution, we continue to work to protect the interests of Old Catton.

From time to time we will also finance a small project, for example the provision of a bench seat in Catton Park. We also designed and installed an information board in Church Street with details of the history of the oldest buildings in the village centre.

In 1994 the Society purchased, the small garden and pond at Parkside Drive which originally formed part of the landscaped garden of Catton Hall. This was given to the Parish Council in 2019
