HRH THE PRINCE OF WALES IN THE VERY FIRST SITE MEETING IN 1993
HISTORY: THE MASTERPLAN
In 1987 the local planning authority, West Dorset District Council, selected
Duchy of Cornwall land to the west of Dorchester for future expansion of
the town. As Duke of Cornwall, The Prince of Wales – who re-examined
many of the precepts of urban and rural planning in his book ‘A Vision of
Britain’ – took the opportunity to work with the council to create a model
urban extension to this ancient market town.
In 1988, The Prince of Wales appointed the well-known architect and
urban planner, Leon Krier, to work on an overall concept for 400 acres of
ILLUSTRATED MAP OF THE POUNDBURY VISION
land of what would become Poundbury. Krier’s challenge was to create an
autonomous new extension to the town within the context of traditional
Dorset architecture, using the urban design principles described in ‘A Vision
of Britain’.
In 1989, the Poundbury Masterplan was exhibited in Dorchester at a
Planning Weekend attended by The Prince of Wales. Local residents and
interested parties were invited to share their opinions and the feedback was
reflected in the scheme designs before planning consent was sought.
The resulting Masterplan divided Poundbury into four distinctive quarters
– with construction work commencing on the first phase in October
1993. Poundbury will be built out by circa 2025. It is expected that when
LEON KRIER AND ANDREW HAMILTON WITH THE
PRINCE OF WALES completed, Dorchester’s population will increase by about one quarter, with
approximately 5,000 people in Poundbury.
By April 2018, Poundbury had become home to over 3,000 people with
2,364 people working full-time and part-time in 187 businesses. Poundbury
is approximately two thirds built and is planned to grow to around 2,500
homes by 2025.
The Duchy of Cornwall continues to consult with the local community to
ensure the community benefits from buildings and public amenities. The
latest consultation events include new community facilities for The Great
Field and plans for Jubilee Hall.

STRATHMORE HOUSE AND ROYAL PAVILION IN QUEEN MOTHER SQUARE
POUNDBURY - ARCHITECTURE,
URBAN DESIGN & CRAFTSMANSHIP
Poundbury is not just about architecture. It is very much to do with creating
a sustainable community which achieves an attractive, modern and pleasing
place in which people can live, work, shop and play. Emphasis is placed on
the quality of place making through urban design and the choice of materials,
landscaping, and attention to detail down to street furniture and signage.
The Prince of Wales believes that one of our country’s greatest strengths is
the regional variation of its towns and villages, built with locally distinctive
materials. The architecture at Poundbury fits this pattern, respecting local
styles, drawing on the rich heritage of Dorset, and in particular, the streets
of Dorchester.
The architects working at Poundbury, several of whom are based in Dorset,
adhere to the building code which promotes the use of shared space and
regulates features such as roof angles and features. Quality of design and
workmanship is controlled by the Duchy through legally-binding Building
Agreements with each developer before the freehold is released.
Parking is generally provided in landscaped courtyards to the rear of
properties, which also incorporate housing including coach houses above
parking spaces and ancillary spaces for playrooms and workshops. Provision
for these extra spaces recognises the increasing demands for flexible living
arrangements and allows people to work from home. Larger commercial
buildings are generally sited for better vehicular access, but are designed
similarly to frame their sites and create a sense of enclosure.
Poundbury demonstrates that it is possible to build high-quality, traditional
housing at affordable prices, and provide new factories and offices on
competitive terms within the context of radically different urban design.

POUNDBURY IS DESIGNED SO MOST OF YOUR DAILY NEEDS CAN BE MET ON FOOT
SHARED SPACE - A WALKABLE
COMMUNITY
In Poundbury, priority is given to people rather than cars to help create a
sense of community and a feeling of safety. The principles of shared space
in Poundbury’s streets and squares have inspired town planners all over
the world.
The irregular design of streets constrain car speeds, and by minimising road
signs, directions and road markings, shared spaces pass the responsibility
back onto the motorist to think about how they interact with other road users.
“At Poundbury the entire Masterplan was based upon placing the pedestrian,
and not the car, at the centre of the design.”
The Prince of Wales
MIXED USE
Another innovative concept for new development was how Poundbury
integrates residential, retail and business uses with public amenities, so many
people are able to live and work without the reliance on motor vehicles.
Most of your daily needs can therefore be met on foot, but there is
nevertheless ample provision for car parking with very little restrictions.
Parking is generally provided in landscaped courtyards at the rear of
properties which also incorporate housing and coach houses with ancillary
spaces for playrooms and workshops. Provision for these extra spaces
recognises the increasing demands for flexible living arrangements and
allows people to work from home.

POUNDBURY FEATURES 35% AFFORDABLE HOUSING INTERSPERSED ACROSS THE DEVELOPMENT
AFFORDABLE HOUSING
One of the more innovative ideas suggested by The Prince of Wales in
‘A Vision of Britain’ in 1989, was to build private and social housing
alongside one another rather than continuing to build huge ghettoised
housing estates.
In Poundbury, private and affordable housing are interspersed and
indistinguishable from each other. As a result, the community is more
cohesive. Current guidelines require 35% of housing in Poundbury to be
affordable and The Duchy continues to explore innovative ways in which
the local housing need can be met.
According to The Guinness Partnership – which provides much of the
affordable housing – Poundbury is its most successful and trouble-free site
with residents reporting a higher level of satisfaction than elsewhere. The
partnership has used principles learnt in Poundbury across the UK. In 2015
the partnership completed its 250th home in Poundbury.
“Providing housing of this quality really can improve people’s lives and open
up a lot of opportunities that would otherwise not be afforded to them.”
The Guinness Partnership
For example The Duchy has been pioneering a Discount to Open Market
Scheme with Zero C Holdings in Poundbury. It allows first time buyers
to purchase properties with a 25-30% discount. The buyer retains 100%
ownership of the property but must sell the home on with the same discount.
The difference between this and other Government schemes is that the homes
will remain discounted in perpetuity for future first time buyers to benefit
from. To be eligible for the scheme applicants must be on West Dorset
District Council’s Housing List and have a combined income below £60,000
per annum.

COMMUNITY
Nearly a quarter of a century into the build, there are now more than 3,000
people living and 2,364 people working in Poundbury. There are various
community groups such as a choir, hobby clubs, a popular weekly toddler
playgroup, gardening and walking groups.
There are two different allotments with their own societies and a thriving
business community, who often arrange events for local residents such as
Christmas markets, Easter egg hunts and community picnics.
THE TEAM AT CAFE ON THE GREEN
Every August the Dorset Food & Arts Festival is held in Queen Mother
Square, which attracts thousands of people to this popular event
promoting local artisan food and drink.
The early involvement of the local businesses and residents has helped
to create a place with a strong community spirit, which meets people’s
needs, desires and aspirations, and engenders civic pride.
EDUCATION
Poundbury is surrounded by a range of state schools, all of which are
either rated Outstanding or Good by Ofsted. This includes two first
schools, a middle school and Thomas Hardye School & Sixth Form, which
GARDENERS AT ONE OF POUNDBURY ALOTMENTS is the biggest and one of the highest performing in the UK.
In 2017 Damers First School relocated into a new building designed to
meet their specific needs. The move to Poundbury has enabled the school
to improve its environmental credentials, from growing its own food to
reducing waste and increasing rates of walking, cycling and scooting
to school. The school’s Eco Crew have been helping the community to
start a Refill Poundbury scheme alongside Litter Free Dorset, which
allows people to fill up water bottles in a number of businesses around
Poundbury, reducing plastic waste. The eco campaigners are also helping
businesses recycle ink cartridges. Both local first schools have been
awarded with the Eco Schools Green Flag.

POUNDBURY PHASE ONE INCLUDING
PUMMERY SQUARE
Pummery Square forms the ‘hub’ of Phase 1, also linking through to the
Victoria Park development to the east. The permeable network of roads,
alleyways and parking courtyards in Phase 1 fan out from the hub to give
immediacy to the facilities within the Square.
The dominant building is the Brownsword Hall, designed by John Simpson,
in the idiom of a traditional West Country market hall. The upper chamber is
effectively Poundbury’s community hall, managed by the Poundbury Village
HOLMEAD WALK Hall Trust and hired out for community, private and commercial events.
The surface of the Square belongs to the Brownsword Hall and is used for
occasional public and theatrical events as well as a car park.
The other buildings fronting the Square are commercial on the ground floor
and residential above. Significant buildings are The Poet Laureate Public
House, Poundbury Village Stores, Café Octagon, The Poundbury Clinic, and
a number of small boutique shops and services.
Architects: John Simpson, Leigh Brooks, David Oliver, Ben Pentreath,

WOODLAND CRESCENT PLAY AREA POUNDBURY PHASE 2
The second phase of the development was granted outline planning
permission in October 1999, providing approx. 900 dwellings and 6ha of
employment space over a 10 year development period. Middle Farm Way,
relieving Bridport Road, was constructed in 2006. As from 2005 the Duchy
has provided 35% affordable housing in Phase 2. The focus of Phase 2 is
The Queen Mother Square, formally opened by Her Majesty The Queen in
October 2016.
This provides further retail and commercial opportunities including a
Waitrose store, wine shop and traditional butchers.

This 10 acre site forming the remainder of Phase 2 is situated between
Bridport Road and Middle Farm Way with views towards historic Maiden
Castle. Planning approval was granted in 2006 for 190 homes (of which
59 are affordable, including a mixture of shared ownership and rented
accommodation), shops, offices and restaurants. The focal point of the
development is the Buttermarket with small retail units and workshops lining
the square to provide an artisan flavour. Regular community events take
place in the Buttermarket including Christmas markets and Easter egg hunts,
mainly organised by local businesses.

PARKWAY FARM
Parkway Farm is a 2ha site south of Middle Farm Way. This site is being
developed for heavier industrial uses (B2), which cannot be integrated with
residential.
Weymouth College moved its Centre of Vocational Excellence in
Stonemasonry Skills to Parkway Farm in 2008. Here, in addition to
INGLESCOMBE STREET stone masonry, students learn traditional craft skills such as conventional
construction techniques including plastering, wall tiling and plumbing.
Stonemasonry students from all over Europe travel to attend the stonemasonry
school.
In 2016 the Dorset Centre for Creative Arts opened, which offers short art
courses and specialises in traditional skills such as Viking jewellery and
bronze casting as well as creative writing and film making classes.

15THE OFFICIAL OPENING
OF QUEEN MOTHER SQUARE
On 27 October 2016, Her Majesty The Queen paid a special visit to
Poundbury alongside HRH The Duke of Edinburgh, and TRH The Prince
of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall.
Her Majesty The Queen unveiled a statue of her mother in front of thousands
of people who turned up for the momentous occasion. The event was to mark
the official opening of Queen Mother Square and to recognise the hard work
and achievements of all those involved in the design and build of Poundbury
over the last 23 years.
“I am deeply grateful to their teams of talented craftsmen, many of whom are
Dorset men through and through. For me one of the most essential features of
Poundbury has been its mixed use, mixed income composition - a dangerously
revolutionary move 25 years ago. So particular thanks goes to the social-
housing providers, notably The Guinness Partnership of which I am patron.”
The Prince of Wales at the Queen Mother Statue unveiling,
27 October 2016
The Duchess of Cornwall Inn in Queen Mother Square opened to the public
following an earlier unveiling by The Duchess of Cornwall on the same
momentous day. Named at the suggestion of HRH The Prince of Wales
in honour of Her Royal Highness, the new inn is a joint venture between
the Duchy of Cornwall and Dorset’s Hall & Woodhouse brewery. The inn
provides 20 hotel guest rooms as well as restaurant facilities and traditional
public house offerings.
Their Royal Highnesses have long supported local pubs as a hub of
community life and in Poundbury, The Duchess pulled a pint of “The
Duchess”, a specially created ale, to mark the completion of the venue.
16“It is with immense pride and
in loving memory of my darling
grandmother that I ask Your
Majesty to unveil this statue of
The Queen Mother and thus

POUNDBURY PHASES 3 & 4
Outline planning permission was granted by West Dorset District Council
in September 2011 for the remainder of Poundbury (44 hectares), which
covers the northern and western perimeters. This includes 1,200 dwellings,
a new four-form, 20 classroom entry first school which replaced Damers First
School in Dorchester, and alterations to the Monkey’s Jump Roundabout
(Dorchester Bypass).
THE NORTH EAST QUADRANT
On completion in 2020, this quadrant will have delivered an extra 550 homes,
ranging from five-bedroom houses to one-bedroom apartments.
A total of 35% of the homes are built for affordable rent, shared ownership
and discounted homes for sale to first time buyers.
The site covers 15.8ha comprising of 550 homes and 5,000m² of employment
space, generating an average density of 33 dwellings/ha.
The North East Quadrant follows the principles set out in previous phases
of the development and taken up in the Poundbury Development Brief
(published by West Dorset District Council in 2006 and available to view
at www.dorsetforyou.com).
The next phase of Poundbury will be the Northern Quadrant. If the planning
application is successful, construction of the 350 homes will commence
next year. The North West Quadrant is the last phase of construction in
Poundbury which is planned to start in 2022. By completion in around 2025
it is expected that Poundbury will have increased Dorchester’s population by
a quarter, some 5,000 residents, in around 2,500 homes and created a similar
number of jobs.

“When I set out on this venture,
I was determined that Poundbury
would break the mould of
conventional housing development
in this country, and create an
attractive place for people to
live, work and play. Many people
said that it could never succeed
but I am happy to say that the
sceptics were wrong and it is
now a thriving urban settlement

SUSTAINABILITY
The concept of sustainability has been at the heart of the Poundbury
masterplan from the outset. Many different methods of improving and
advancing carbon reductions have also been explored.
ANAEROBIC DIGESTATE – RAINBARROW FARM
Rainbarrow Farm is the UK’s first commercial biomethane to grid plant,
generating enough gas to flow to 4,500 houses mid winter and 50,000 houses
mid summer. Biogas produced at Rainbarrow Farm was first cleaned and
injected as biomethane into the National Grid on 11 October 2012.
A joint venture partnership was formed (JV Energen LLP) between the Duchy
of Cornwall and a local farmer, who needed more sustainable break crops and
fertiliser sources, and Active Business Partnerships, which helped to unite the
project and formulate the business structure to take the project forward.
In June 2013 JV Energen won the British Renewable Energy Leadership
Award 2013, against over 200 nominations across nine categories. JV
Energen, The Duchy of Cornwall were presented with the UK’s first ever
Green Gas Certificates. A recent development at Rainbarrow Farm means
that the digestate - the material left at the end of the AD process - can be sold
and used as a nutrient rich bio-fertiliser, which helps farmers to replace more
costly, petrol-chemical derived fertilisers.
For more information please visit: www.jvenergen.co.uk
ELECTRIC CAR CHARGING POINTS
There are two public car charging points in Queen Mother Square. The unit is
a Rolec Sercuricharge and tokens can be purchased in the garden centre and
restaurant for £1, with several more planned across the site.
22THE RESTORED JUBILEE HALL
Kings Point House is a mixed development of apartments, houses and
commercial units with a total of 24 units being supplied by a KWB 100kW
biomass wood pellet boiler with a 100kW gas back up.
INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY
A Poundbury based eco-company has been working on a range of sustainable
energy solutions for residents. This includes power walls that can help
homeowners become sustainable by generating electricity by sunlight in the day
and powering the home in the evening. Other homeowners have had electric
car and bike charging points installed. A popular e-bike shop in Poundbury
champions the benefits of e-bikes in the community.
RESTORING THE JUBILEE HALL
In Queen Mother Square, the Jubilee Hall incorporates structural elements
of The Royal Jubilee Hall from the nearby town of Weymouth.
The original Jubilee Hall was erected in 1887 with much local pride to
commemorate the 50 year reign of HM Queen Victoria.
It served as a music hall and theatre, but despite a spirited campaign
from local environmentalist Dr Geoffrey Poole, it was demolished in
1989 to make way for a town centre retail development in Weymouth. Its
structurally important cast iron features were salvaged and laid to rest in a
quarry at Portland.
The Duchy of Cornwall and Woodpecker Properties eventually recovered
the historic cast iron columns and brackets and incorporated them in the
modern Jubilee Hall in Kings Point House. The Duchy started in the spring
of 2018, to ask the community what type of new community space and
facilities they would like to see in the new hall, inviting groups to come
forward and operate such a facility.
