    The busy market town of Newtown stands on the banks of the River Severn within the picturesque Powys countryside some 8 miles from the England/Wales border. It stands astride the main A483 at its junction with the A470, this route being seen as the gateway to the West Wales coastline from the Midlands. Its train station is located on the Shrewsbury to Aberystwyth line which is served by Transport for Wales. The town is approximately 13 miles from the nearby market town of Welshpool, 22 miles from the Victorian spa town of Llandrindod Wells and 32 miles from Shropshire’s county town of Shrewsbury. The renowned coastal resort of Aberyswyth is 44 miles distant.
