Swansea County Borough Council

Swansea County Borough Council was established in 1889 under the Local Government Act 1888. The first elections were held in November 1889. The county was abolished under the Local Government Act 1972 on 1 April 1974. It was incorporated into the new county of West Glamorgan.

As a result of the Local Government (Wales) Act 1994, which came into force on 1 April 1996, a number of new unitary authorities were created including the new Swansea Council.
