Poundbury in Dorset is an experimental new town devised by Prince Charles. In 1987, West Dorset Council selected Duchy land for the expansion of Dorchester. The Prince of Wales worked with the council to develop the plan. He appointed the architect, Leon Krier, to prepare the overall plan. Krier is well known in Europe and America as a champion of traditional urban design.

... designed in the traditional vernacular styles of Dorset and built with local materials.

As stated on the official website, "The architecture at Poundbury is unashamedly traditional, using a variety of Dorset materials such as stone, slate and render."
