Newtown is the largest town in the county of Powys, Wales. It had a permanent resident population of 12783 in 2001, falling to 11357 at the 2011 census. Newtown is almost 8 miles (13 km) from the Wales-England border, in the narrow valley of the river Severn which limits development north and south of the town. Newtown is surrounded by small villages normally referenced as the Newtown area. The town grew most considerably in the 18th and 19th centuries around the textile and flannel market, which was further promoted by the conclusion of the Montgomeryshire Canal. In 1838, the town saw Wales’ first Chartist demonstration. The town was designated as a ‘brand-new town’ in 1967. It has seen a large population growth as companies and people have settled, altering the rural market town character. Resting on the River Severn, within the historic boundaries of Montgomeryshire, the town is best known as the birthplace of Robert Owen in 1771. His one-time house stood on what is now the site of the HSBC Bank. The Robert Owen Museum is across the road, filling the ground floor of the council offices. Constructed by Sir Pryce Pryce-Jones, the Pryce Jones Royal Welsh Warehouse is still the tallest building in Newtown. The two imposing structures housed the world’s first mail order service depot. Bear Lanes, the town’s prime shopping centre, has a Tudor-style entryway. The building was originally a hotel, The Bear, which adds to the centre’s look today. Newtown is also the home of Theatr Hafren and of Oriel Davies, a huge public gallery, which features national and foreign contemporary art and craft. Newtown hosted the National Eisteddfod in 1965.
