Caersws is a village and community sitting on the River Severn, some four miles west of Newtown, Powys, (formerly the county of Montgomeryshire).
The name Caersws means 'fort of Sws'. The prefix is Welsh 'Caer' meaning fort and the village is the location of two Roman forts of Roman Wales. These may be Mediomanum, 'the central fist' of the Ravenna Cosmography, although this is disputed.
Caersws has a railway station on the Cambrian Line from Aberystwyth to Shrewsbury. Caersws also has a League of Wales football side, Caersws F.C..
Llanwnnog Church in the community of Caersws is a single-chambered structure, variously considered to be of 13th century or 15th century date and restored in 1863. It contains the best example of a 15th century or 16th century rood screen and loft in Montgomeryshire, a medieval font bowl and one 17th century memorial.
