Burnley Wards Reduced For Next May

"It's going to be a big one', was how Burnley's election officer, Alison Morville, described next May's council elections in the town. "All 45 five seats are up for election because of ward boundary changes.
In fact, the number of wards have been reduced from 16 to 15, with 'Fulledge ward' now ceasing to exist. The Burnley Wood section of Fulledge will join with it's other half from Rosehill ward to form a new ward 'Burnley Wood with Rosehill". It's understood that the rest of Fulledge will be swallowed up by Brunshaw, Trinity and Bank Hall wards.

FULLEDGE WARD: May 2000.
Labour Party - 401 (48.5%)
Liberal Democrats - 248 (30.0%)
British National Party - 178 (21.5%)
