The idea for these boards came from the Old Catton Society who wanted to ensure residents and visitors alike were aware of the history of Old Catton.
The first Board in Church Street beside the churchyard wall describes the historic features of the Church Street area. This Board was funded by donations from the proceeds of the 2012 Diamond Jubilee Fete and Gordon Signs, then a local firm in St Faiths Road. The board was designed and printed by CIM of Rackheath.
The second board, erected in Spixworth Road in 2025, is opposite the War Memorial, likewise it describes the historical information of the immediate area.
The board was funded by contributions in memory of Mrs Sylvia Burrows a long term resident, a grant from Broadland District Council arranged by Cllr Karen Vincent, and a resident. The design was produced by CIM and in a similar style to the first.
