The Site
At the heart of Ascot High Street, just a short walk to the train station, our site has the potential to become a vibrant new part of the town centre for existing and future residents to enjoy.
On the southern side of the High Street, at the corner of High Street and Station Hill, the 2.77-hectare site extends south towards Ascot Wood and Ascot Railway Station and is currently used as a car park for the racecourse.
There are two entrances to the site from the High Street and one from Station Hill.
Currently, the area is a mix of hard surfacing and grassed areas having been used as a car park associated with the racecourse located to the north of the High Street. It does include a large number of mature trees and we have prepared initial designs that show how we can retain as many as possible.
There are several amenities nearby that serve the existing community, including retail, food and hospitality businesses. It is our aim for the new development to complement and support local businesses, helping the area to thrive.
