Major Projects
Dorchester Regeneration
Dorchester Regeneration has delivered a range of projects over the last two decades, ranging from under ten units to large mixed-use schemes with thousands of new homes and complex infrastructure.
We are as comfortable acquiring sites and developing under our own brand, as we are working in partnerships as appointed development managers for land-owners.

Heyford Park
The proposals outline the delivery of up to 9,000 new homes, creating one of the most significant regeneration projects in the UK. Designed as a vibrant, sustainable new community, Heyford Park will provide a mix of housing types, including around 2,700 affordable homes, 900 assisted living units, and 180 key worker homes.
The masterplan goes far beyond housing, setting out a complete vision for a modern town. It includes new schools, a health hub, leisure and retail space, and over 5,000 new jobs, with a focus on clean tech and creative industries. Heritage features from the site’s RAF history will be sensitively retained, while the design promotes walkable neighbourhoods and strong community connections.
Sustainability sits at the heart of the proposals. Around 60% of the site will be dedicated to green and blue infrastructure, including Runway Park, extensive tree planting, and new nature corridors, delivering at least a 10% biodiversity net gain. Heyford Park also aspires to become the UK’s first energy-surplus town, generating more renewable energy than it consumes.
Connectivity and infrastructure are key, with upgrades to Heyford Station, improvements to the Cherwell Valley Line, and new bus, cycle and pedestrian routes planned to encourage sustainable travel. With more than 1,200 homes and facilities already delivered, this next phase represents a bold step towards creating a thriving, well-connected, and resilient new community for Oxfordshire.
In September 2025, Heyford Park was designated a New Town by the UK Government Task Force.

Prince Philip Park
Size: 500 acres Properties: 2400 Location: Hampshire
An example of a partnership project being undertaken under our development management model, the regeneration of Whitehill & Bordon is one of the largest projects of its kind being carried out in the UK. Outline planning consent was the biggest ever granted by East Hampshire District Council when it was passed in 2015.
Alongside 4,000 new homes and large town centre being delivered at Prince Philip Park, the Hogmoor Inclosure, is the third largest nature park of its kind in the UK. It will feature various walking and running routes, children’s play areas and community centres. Also in the vicinity of the town centre will be a recreated sports and community centre, which will feature a large function space, along with football pitches and a cricket pavilion. This is in addition to a new leisure centre, plus new primary and secondary schools to be built. Beyond the main hub of the town centre will be a number of commercial zones that will attract a range of industries, from technology and science to film.
The town of Whitehill & Bordon has a significant past as a military town. Prince Philip Park will celebrate this history, whilst looking to the future as a modern place to live and work.
We maintain a close working relationship with the land owner DIO. We have been working closely with other delivery partners – East Hants District Council, Hampshire County Council and Homes England. We have been commended for the way in which we have progressed the pace of delivery and quality of the development on behalf of the DIO.
