In 1823 Low Catton church was under the patronage of the Earl of Egremont. In the village existed a grammar school with schoolmaster. Population at the time was 177. Occupations included nine farmers, a joiner, a shoemaker, and a curate. There was a yeoman, and the steward to Lord Egremont at Catton Lodge.[2]
