Llanidloes Without is a rural community with few settlements, located in Mid-Wales. It surrounds the town of Llanidloes on three sides, but does not include it. Its boundaries include Llyn Clywedog Lake in the north and the River Severn to the south.[2] It is bordered by the Powys communities of Trefeglwys to the north, Llangurig to the south, Llandinam to the east and shares a small border with the Ceredigion community of Blaenrheidol to the west.[1]

The community had a population of 661 according to the 2011 UK Census, of which 370 were born in Wales.[3]

Governance

[edit]

Llanidloes Without has its own community council, comprising seven community councillors and a clerk, who oversee planning applications and other issues of local interest.[4]

The community is part of the Blaen Hafren electoral ward (with the neighbouring Llangurig and Trefeglwys communities) which sends a county councillor to sit on Powys County Council.
