This new block of twelve flats is become occupied, now christened Nicola Court with its entrance off Carshalton Park Road, right at the junction with Pound Street. This was the site of the former Texaco Garage/Petrol Station at 31-33 Pound Street. Some years ago, the FOCUS team of Hamish, Jill and Alan fought for a good design at the Council’s planning committee (development control committee) for this landmark site; and we feel that the developer and the developer’s building team has done a really splendid job in providing a landmark building suitable for the Carshalton Village Conservation Area.
