- Source: 1964 Neath Rural District Council election
An election to the Neath Rural District Council in West Glamorgan, Wales was held on 7 May 1964. It was preceded by the 1961 election, and followed by the 1967 election.
Boundary changes
The overall number of seats was increased from 29 to 30 by the creation of an additional seat at Tonna while the Coedffranc ward which had returned five members foe many decades was divided into five single-member wards.
Overview of the results
As at previous elections, Labour retained the vast majority of seats, but suffered some losses to the Independents.
Candidates
The profile of candidates was similar to three years previously with a number of long-serving Labour councillors returned unopposed. However, William Jones, the father of the Council was challenged for the first time in 30 years.
Outcome
William Jones narrowly held on in Baglan Higher while Labour lost a seat at Coedffranc.
