HISTORY: THE MASTERPLAN POUNDBURY - ARCHITECTURE, In 1987 the local planning authority, District Council, selected URBAN DESIGN & CRAFTSMANSHIP Duchy of Cornwall land to the west of Dorchester for future expansion of Poundbury is not just about architecture. It is very much to do with creating the town. As of Cornwall, The Prince of Wales – who re-examined a sustainable community which achieves an attractive, modern and pleasing many of the precepts of urban and rural planning in his book ‘A Vision of place in which people can live, work, shop and play. Emphasis is placed on Britain’ – took the opportunity to work with the council to create a model the quality of place making through urban design and the choice of materials, urban extension to this ancient market town. landscaping, and attention to detail down to street furniture and signage.

In 1988, The Prince of Wales appointed the well-known architect and The Prince of Wales believes that one of our country’s greatest strengths is urban planner, Leon Krier, to work on an overall concept for 400 acres of the regional variation of its towns and villages, built with locally distinctive land of what would become Poundbury. Krier’s challenge was to create an materials. The architecture at Poundbury fits this pattern, respecting local autonomous new extension to the town within the context of traditional styles, drawing on the rich heritage of Dorset, and in particular, the streets of Dorset architecture, using the urban design principles described in ‘A Vision Dorchester. of Britain’. The architects working at Poundbury, several of whom are based in Dorset In 1989, the Poundbury Masterplan was exhibited in Dorchester at a adhere to the building code which promotes the use of shared space and Planning Weekend attended by The Prince of Wales.
