Montgomery County Infirmary (Welsh: Ysbyty Sir Drefaldwyn) is a health facility in Llanfair Road, Newtown, Powys, Wales. It is managed by the Powys Teaching Health Board.

History

The facility was established in a private house in 1868[1] and, after a major fund-raining campaign for a new building, moved into expanded facilities in Llanfair Road in 1911.[2] It joined the National Health Service in 1948 and subsequently evolved to become a community hospital.[3][4]
