The 1854 Cardiganshire by-election was a parliamentary by-election held on 22 February 1854 for the British House of Commons constituency of Cardiganshire.

Previous Member of Parliament

The seat had become vacant when the constituency's Conservative Member of Parliament (MP), William Edward Powell (16 February 1788 – 10 April 1854) retired from Parliament.[1] He died not long after.

Candidates

Only one candidate was nominated for the by-election.

Vaughan was a prominent landowner in Cardiganshire and the 4th Earl of Lisburne.

Vaughan's political views and allegiance to the Conservative Party were expected to attract opposition and Thomas Lloyd of Bronwydd was mentioned as a possible candidate.[1] However, Lloyd declined to stand and the Liberals, following the lead of the Pryse family of Gogerddan, chose not to contest the seat.[2]
