The election was also the last to use the 10 wards created by the Initial Statutory Reviews of Electoral Arrangements in 1981 without alterations. Each ward elected one councillor using
first-past-the-post voting.[1]
Labour maintained control of the district council after winning all 10 seats although two were uncontested after only Labour stood a candidate. Despite the uncontested seats, Labour increased their vote share by 4.9% and took nearly two-thirds of the popular vote. The
Social Democratic Party and Independent Labour, who both won one seat at the
previous election in 1988, lost their only seats.
