The Borough of New Radnor, Radnorshire, which was created as a planned town adjoining an earlier castle, was initially granted charters by several Earls of the March in the 14th century. These charters had been destroyed, however, and in 1562 a new charter of incorporation was granted by the Crown to the Borough of New Radnor and Manor of Radnor Foreign; the town had become the county town for the new county of Radnorshire in the Act of Union (1536). By 1739, the Common Council, originally 25 capital burgesses, had been reduced to such an extent that the main offices of the borough could not be filled, and the remaining seven capital burgesses were granted a new charter of re-incorporation. The Borough was dissolved in 1886, and the town subsequently became part of Radnor Rural District.
