1952 Cardiganshire County Council election

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The nineteenth election to Cardiganshire County Council took place in April 1952. It was preceded by the 1949 election and followed by the 1955 election.

Candidates

40 candidates were returned unopposed resulting in only ten contests. This was five fewer than in 1949 with more unopposed returns than at any election since the council was established in 1888.[1]

Eight aldermen retired, of whom four sought election.

Outcome

Of the ten contests, the striking result was the defeat of the chairman-elect, Morgan Jones at Strata Florida. Jones, a retiring alderman and member since 1928 was opposed and defeated by retiring councillor Emrys Lloyd.[2]

  • J.D. Evans, New Cross
  • D.L. Herbert, Llangeitho
  • Meredydd Ll.G. Williams, Llanwenog

In addition, the following four new aldermen were elected:

  • Emlyn Abraham-Williams, Aberystwyth
  • D. Alban Davies, Llanrhystud
  • Simon Davies, Felinfach
  • D. Lloyd Thomas, Tresaith
  • Evan Davies, Llechryd

In addition to the three retiring aldermen who were re-elected, Simon Davies had previously served as an alderman from 1928 until 1946.
