New Radnor Seen from the mighty castle motte. A planned medieval town that didn't get much beyond the planning stage. The castle was sacked by Owain Glyndwr and never recovered. In the 19th century the railway came en route to the coast, but got no further and was closed in 1951.

St Mary, New Radnor An early Victorian replacement for the medieval parish church, once on this site. Built 1843-5 by Thomas Dashwood, and by that time, somewhat outdated. Seen from the path up from the village.
