caption_attribution_description: English: Llanelwedd quarries from the River Wye near Builth Wells in mid-Wales. The quarries are a major feature of Llanelwedd village.
context_page_description: Llanelwedd is a village and community near Builth Wells, in Powys, Wales. It lies within the historic boundaries of Radnorshire; its pronunciation approximates in English orthography to Hlaneluith. Llanelwedd features the Royal Welsh Showground.
context_section_description: Llanelwedd is on the right bank of the Wye concentrated immediately north of Builth Wells.  Here meet roads 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.
  A now dismantled railway runs through the Community, generally following the Wye valley.
  The local stone is suitable for various uses, and the Llanelwedd Quarries dominate the landscape on the north-east side of the village.
