About

Old Catton is a suburb situated directly northeast of Norwich city centre, within the Broadland district. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of housing from different periods, including Victorian terraces, inter-war semis, and modern developments. It functions as a commuter settlement for Norwich, with good road links via the A1151 and proximity to the Broadland Business Park. The local economy is supported by several small retail parades serving day-to-day needs.

The geography is gently undulating, with the area historically known for its agricultural land. A defining characteristic is the presence of the medieval St. Margaret's Church at its heart, with a churchyard that includes ancient yew trees. Open spaces include the Marriott's Way recreational path, which follows the former railway line, and Sloughbottom Park, which provides sports facilities and meadows. The parish retains a distinct village identity despite its suburban location.
