Welshpool
Welshpool is a town and area in Wales, traditionally in the county of Montgomeryshire, yet presently carried out as part of the unitary authority of Powys. The town is located 4 miles (6.4 kilometres) from the Wales-- England border and low-lying on the River Severn; its Welsh language name Y Trallwng means "the marshy or sinking land". Welshpool is the fourth largest town in Powys. In English it was at first called Pool but its name was changed to Welshpool in 1835 to differentiate it from the English town of Poole. It has a population of 6,664 (UK Census 2011), consists of much Georgian style as well as is just north of Powis Castle. The regional economic situation is primarily based upon agriculture and neighborhood sector. The Smithfield Livestock Market is the largest one-day lamb market in Europe, whilst the community's industrial estates are house to many various kinds of little sector. Due to the community's little size as well as population the destination of high street shops is restricted, implying a lot of the homeowners are compelled to go shopping in neighbouring communities like Newtown and also Shrewsbury.
