Llandinam with Dolfor is a largely rural ward in Powys, Wales, centred on the village of Llandinam and the nearby hamlet of Dolfor. It sits in a pleasant river valley on the banks of the River Severn, with rolling farmland and views towards the Cambrian Mountains, making it popular with walkers and those seeking a quieter, sparsely populated part of historic Montgomeryshire.
The area has an interesting 19th‑century industrial link as the birthplace of the philanthropist and industrialist David Davies, and that Victorian legacy is visible in several listed buildings. Local life remains centred on agriculture, small local businesses and community institutions such as the village hall and primary school, while many residents commute to nearby Newtown for work; heritage and riverside recreation also attract a modest level of tourism.
