A notice case is provided here by Cawston Parish Council to display council minutes and other community notices. The prominent 'NO' in the central section is a reminder to bag and bin dog waste. When the estate was built, mainly around 2003/4 (although there have been more recent extensions to the south), a decision was taken not to incorporate the area into Rugby town but instead to give it its own civil parish. The Whitefriars name reflects the fact that Cawston Hall was built by the Boughton family out of bricks taken from the demolished Whitefriars Church in Coventry.
