The plaque is on a purpose built brick plinth telling the history of the former farm and the acquisition of the land after it's role in World War Two. A plaque on the reverse outlines the WW2 role in the defence of Lowestoft and anti-invasion measures.
The plaque reads: "College Farm once owned by St. Mary Magdalene College, Oxford, stretched from Sharon Drive to Foxborough School. The Boggis family worked this arable and dairy farm. This area was known as the 'Church Fields', having a footpath linking Oulton Village to St. Margaret's Church.
The Farm was bought by the Warnes family in 1958 for housing development. This plaque was placed here on 28th June 2004 near the completion of the estate. The principle for the Warnes Family over the years has been these words from the Bible: 'In all your ways acknowledge Him (God) and He shall direct your paths.' Proverbs ch.3 v.6."
