Llanbister (Welsh pronunciation) is a small village and community with a 2011 population of 382[1] in Powys, mid Wales, in the historic county of Radnorshire. It is on the river Ithon, at the junction of the A483 road (which follows the river north towards Newtown and south towards Llandrindod Wells) and the B4356. It is served by Llanbister Road railway station on the Heart of Wales Line, but the station is some 4 miles east of the village (and longer by road).
