Last weekend I visited my folks. While we were there we went to Poundbury.
Poundbury is essentially a housing estate, but rather than being rows of Barrett homes all the houses are different. They follow a number of design styles right though the ages. What they have tried to do is to create a village. There is a mismatch of design styles, Small pedestrian side street. A market square with shops and a pub.
I had not been there before, neither had the Hubby. I found the whole place very strange, and I can't say why.
Here is the website:

Have you been there? Do you live there? Why did if feel so strange?
