Newtown: A historic market town on the River Severn

Newtown, the second town on the River Severn and the largest in Powys, is conveniently located just 8 miles from the Welsh-English border. This historic market town boasts a rich industrial heritage, having once been an international center for the flannel industry and the birthplace of the mail-order retail business, pioneered by Pryce Jones. The iconic Royal Welsh Warehouse still stands as a testament to this legacy, dominating the townscape.

Today, Newtown serves as an ideal base for exploring the surrounding picturesque countryside. You can enjoy a variety of scenic walks and nature trails, many of which utilise the charming canal paths and lead to historical sites such as Dolforwyn and Montgomery castles.

The town itself offers a wide range of amenities and facilities, including excellent public transport connections, with direct train links from Birmingham through to the Cambrian Coast. Newtown is well-served by several primary schools, a secondary school, and further education facilities. For those seeking cultural experiences, Newtown is now home to local galleries, museums, and a theatre, in addition to a variety of local sports facilities, shops, and services. Whether you're interested in history, outdoor pursuits, or simply exploring a vibrant market town, Newtown offers something for everyone.
