  • Source: 1919 Llandeilo Rural District Council election

    • An election to the Llandeilo Rural District Council was held in March 1919. It was preceded by the 1913 election due to the postponement of the 1916 election due to the First World War, and was followed by the 1922 election. The successful candidates were also elected to the Llandeilo Board of Guardians.


    Overview of the result


    The majority of those candidates elected stood without party affiliations although an increased number of Labour candidates contested the industrial wards. As in previous elections a number of the members representing rural wards were returned unopposed.

    Llandeilo Board of Guardians


    All members of the District Council also served as members of Llandeilo Board of Guardians. In addition, three Guardians were elected to represent the Ammanford Urban District and another three to represent the Cwmamman Urban District, both of which also lay within the remit of the Llandeilo Guardians. A further three Guardians were elected to represent the Llandeilo Urban District.
    Elected candidates at both Ammanford and Cwmamman stood specifically as Liberals, in contrast to the non-political nature of previous Guardians elections.
