Bracknell town had a population of 60,057 at the 2021 census, within the wider Bracknell Forest borough of around 130,000 — one of the post-war new towns designated under the 1946 New Towns Act.
The Lexicon, and what a new town never had
As a planned new town, Bracknell's retail centre has always been built rather than grown — most recently as The Lexicon, a £240 million, one-million-square-foot regeneration that opened in September 2017 after more than 20 years of planning, replacing roughly a third of the old town centre with over 160 shops, restaurants and a cinema.
What Bracknell hasn't developed, in the way an older market town might have, is a long-established independent sweet shop with decades of local history behind it — the town's retail story is really the story of successive redevelopments, not a single trading name that's stuck around.
What a shopping centre this size still doesn't cover
Even 160-plus shops under one roof are built around fashion, food and leisure chains, not 3kg bulk bags, vegan-specific ranges, or halal-friendly selections put together for a business order.
Why Bracknell shoppers order online anyway
For bulk, dietary-specific or trade quantities, ordering online and having it delivered direct to a Bracknell address is the more consistent option than a trip to The Lexicon.
