Corris is a village in the county of Gwynedd, Wales, about 4.5 miles (7 km) north of the town of Machynlleth.

The community council system replaced the former parish council system and tackles local issues, as well as acting as a contact point between local government and residents for information and resources on various issues.

The community elects one member to represent the Corris/Mawddwy ward on Gwynedd Council.

[1] Besides Corris, the ward covers Mawddwy community to the north-east.
