Building work in Catterall

Catterall is a mostly residential village with a mix of older canal side and farm cottages alongside plenty of later twentieth century estate housing. You will find brick semis and detached family homes, some rural bungalows, and the odd stone built older property near Churchtown and Bonds. Many owners here look to extend or modernise rather than move, given the settled village feel and the pull of Garstang close by. Building work tends towards practical family improvements.
