About

The area around Llanfair Caereinion and Caersws is defined by its river valleys and historic transport routes. Llanfair Caereinion lies within the valley of the River Banwy, a landscape of rolling fields and wooded slopes. The town is a terminus for the Welshpool & Llanfair Light Railway, a narrow-gauge steam line that travels through the countryside towards Welshpool. This heritage railway, originally built for agricultural purposes, provides a specific link to the area's past.

To the south, Caersws sits at the confluence of the River Severn and the River Carno. Its position made it a significant Roman fort, with earthworks still visible near the modern village. The area remains a strategic junction, where the main railway line from Aberystwyth to Shrewsbury meets the Cambrian Line. The broad floodplain of the Severn here creates an open, agricultural character distinct from the narrower valley near Llanfair Caereinion.
