About

Old Radnor ward covers a rural expanse in the northeastern corner of Powys, bordering England. The landscape is defined by rolling hills, farmland, and the prominent rocky outcrop of Old Radnor Hill, which offers sweeping views. The area is sparsely populated, with small settlements like Walton and Kinnerton scattered across the parish. Its economy has long been centred on agriculture, particularly sheep farming on the upland pastures.

The historic St. Stephen's Church in Old Radnor village is a significant medieval site, noted for its pre-Norman font and rare 15th-century organ. The local terrain includes parts of the ancient hunting forest of Radnor and features the source of the River Lugg. Community life is focused around the village hall and the few local farms, maintaining a quiet, agricultural character distinct from the more visited areas of the county.
