Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposals on the setting of All Saints Church (Grade II* listed) and the churchyard walls (Grade II listed)
  • whether they would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of Carshalton Village Conservation Area

What decided it

The less than substantial harm to the setting of All Saints Church and the churchyard walls, and to the character and appearance of the conservation area, was not outweighed by the modest public benefits of four or five dwellings.

The less than substantial harm to heritage assets and conservation area character was not outweighed by the modest public benefits of housing delivery and related economic benefits.
