Site image Centre - Rosehill is reasonable but noisy due to major road junction.

Other North Street/B277 0.2 4 An attractive location for the type of business, although Carshalton ` would not be suited to many other firms if the current occupiers chose to vacate the site. Other Denmark Road 1.7 3 Some landscaped and mature trees along the boundary Council Offices of site.
