==Location and geography== thumb|left|Llanelwedd quarries from the bridge across the River Wye Llanelwedd is on the right bank of the Wye concentrated immediately north of Builth Wells. Here meet the A470 (from Rhayader), the A483 (from Llandrindod Wells and Welshpool), and the A481 (from Worcester). Being more populous, Builth dominates in the general perception of the area, and Llanelwedd's main network of streets can be perceived as part of the town rather than its own village.
