Boundary changes
There were no boundary changes.
Unopposed returns
All but eighteen of the 53 divisions were uncontested, with the majority of the unopposed returns being in the rural parts of the county.

Election of aldermen
In addition to the 53 councillors the council consisted of 17 county aldermen. Aldermen were elected by the council, and served a six-year term. Following the elections the following nine aldermen were elected (with the number of votes in each case).[5]
- John Phillips 48
- Thomas Jones 47
- T.R. Jones 47
- W.N. Jones 47
- John Lloyd 46
- J. Thomas 46
- Rev E.B. Lloyd 45
- Philip Phillips 44
- Tudor Lewis 31
It was suggested that the precedent of electing the local MP, if a member of the Council, be adhered to in the case of Dr J.H. Williams, but Williams gained only 18 votes and was not elected.[5]
