Pontypridd Urban District Council was a local authority in Glamorgan, Wales. It was created in 1894 as a result of the 1894 Local Government of England and Wales Act and the Pontypridd Urban District Council election, 1894 saw the election of the first members of the authority. The Council existed until 1973 and replaced the Pontypridd Local Board of Health which had functioned for some years. Its boundaries were set in 1894. Initially, the Council had eighteen members but this was increased some years later, as a result of the increase in population. There were six wards, namely Cilfynydd, Graig, Pontypridd Town, Rhondda, Trallwn and Treforest. The first councillors were elected at the 1894 elections. Most of the first members of the authority had served on the Local Board. In the years leading up to the First World War, representatives of the Labour Party began to gain ground. In 1974 the authority was abolished, and together with the former rural district of Llantrisant and some outlying areas, formed the Taff Ely Borough Council which, in turn, was subsumed into the unitary authority of Rhondda Cynon Taff in 1996. ==Pontypridd Urban District council election, 1896== In the Pontypridd Urban District Council election of 1896 there were contests in three of the six wards.
