Usk is a small town in Monmouthshire, Wales, situated 10 miles northeast of Newport. Usk is noted for its rural setting, tranquil lifestyle and quality of life. It feels more like a village than a town. The River Usk flows through the town and is spanned by an ancient, arched stone bridge at the western entrance to the town. A castle above the town overlooks the ancient Anglo-Welsh border crossing - the river can usually be crossed on foot in summer even today.

- Usk ist eine mit etwa 2300 Einwohnern kleine Stadt in der Grafschaft Monmouthshire in Wales, 15 Kilometer nordöstlich von Newport gelegen. Usk ist bekannt für seine ländliche Umgebung. Der gleichnamige Fluss Usk fließt durch die Stadt und ist überspannt von einer alten, fünfbögigen Steinbrücke am westlichen Stadteingang, die von William Edwards, dem Architekten der Pontypridd-Brücke, errichtet wurde. Eine Burg über der Stadt überblickt den alten anglo-walisischen Grenzübergang. Usk gewann im Jahr 2005 den Stadtpreis des Entente Florale.

- Usk er en liten by i Monmouthshire, Wales. Den ligger omkring 16 km nordøst for Newport. Elven Usk renner gjennom byen. Befolkningstallet er noe mindre enn 2500. Byen ble grunnlagt i 55 som en romersk bosetning. Den ble etter hvert en travel markedsby, noe den fortsatte å være i viktoriansk tid. Usk er nå populær som et sted for en rolig utekveld, og har et uvanlig stort antall puber og restauranter for en så liten by. Langs hovedgaten ligger det mange gamle hus, noen av dem fra det 15. århundre. En eldgammel steinbro krysser elven ved sørenden av byen.
