  • Carlyon Parish Neighbourhood Development Plan Summary of Evidence
    CARLYON PARISH NEIGHBOURHOOD DEVELOPMENT PLAN SUMMARY OF EVIDENCE SECTION 1: HOUSING Policy H1 Housing Development Policy H1 Justification 1.1 There are two main settlements in Carlyon Parish, Carlyon Bay and the village of Tregrehan, together with Boscundle. They are bisected by the London to Paddington rail line and by the A390 road artery linking St Austell with Truro to the west and Plymouth to the east. 1.2 The Carlyon ward consists mainly of an estate of interconnecting roads with housing in a variety of styles, ranging from detached houses and bungalows from the 1930s up to the present day – as illustrated in the Village Design Statements 6, 7 and 8 and the western part of area 9. (Appendix 22 and 23) The ward also includes a prestigious cliff top golf course and the privately owned Carlyon Bay beaches, which includes planning permission for 511 apartments as part of a beach resort (this development has been on hold since August 2016). There are also two hotels, the Porth Avallen and the Carlyon Bay Hotel, and a small number of retail units. 1.3 In Tregrehan ward the character changes to that of a Cornish village, a rural community, surrounded by rolling green fields. Original buildings are 18th century stone houses and cottages mingled with newer detached homes from the 20th century, typically rendered and finished in pastel colours (as shown in Village Design Statement for area 1. Appendix 20). On the southern side of the A390 there is a mixture of important green spaces, including woodland (Pinetum Gardens), a garden centre and an aquatic centre and a building site for a 200-home new development which began construction in the spring of 2018.
