Kerry is a small village and community in the rural heart of Powys, Wales, set among rolling hills and patchwork fields. The landscape is dominated by the conical Kerry Hill, a local landmark that gives dramatic views over the surrounding valleys and makes the area popular with walkers and cyclists; it’s also a short drive from the market town of Newtown.
Traditionally agricultural, the community still revolves around sheep and hill farming, with stone cottages, a parish church of long standing and a modest village hub of hall and pub for local events. There’s a quietly historic feel - local names and breeds reflect the landscape’s influence - and it serves as a peaceful base for exploring mid-Wales countryside and heritage.
