The possibility of a major expansion of Carterton was first suggested in 1988 in response to a public consultation exercise held by West Oxfordshire District Council. The development has received support on the grounds that such a major expansion would bring about significant improvements in the town’s infrastructure including a link road, a school and a new health centre. The development covers 70 hectares on the north east edge of the town.

When completed the new development will provide about 1,400 new houses and flats set around two major avenues. A new primary school opened in January 2003 and a local centre with a number of small retail units is under construction. The Town Council is building a new community hall on this site which will provide a large meeting place for use by all the residents of the town. A country park is being developed along the northern edge of the site and will offer pleasant walks and cycle routes.
