Beswick was an electoral division of Manchester City Council which was represented from 1919 until 1982. It covered Beswick and parts of Ancoats.

Overview

Beswick ward was created in 1919,^[1] from the western portion of the Bradford ward. The ward was largely unaffected by city-wide boundary revisions in 1950,^[2] however, further revisions in 1971,^[3] transferred part of Ancoats from the former New Cross ward. In 1982, the ward was abolished, and its remaining area became part of the new Beswick and Clayton ward.^[4]

From 1919 until 1955, the ward formed part of the Manchester Clayton Parliamentary constituency.^[5]^[6] From 1955 until 1974, it was part of the Manchester Exchange Parliamentary constituency. From 1974 until its abolition, it was part of the Manchester Central Parliamentary constituency.
