The first elections to the Ceredigion County Council were held on 4 May 1995.[1] In the sense that the borders were identical, the election followed the 1991 election for Ceredigion District Council. It was followed by the 1999 election.
As was the case with the previous authority, the Independents were the largest group with a number of councillors elected unopposed
The boundaries were identical to those used since 1987 for elections to the previous Ceredigion District Council.
In addition to retiring members of the Ceredigion District Council a number of members of Dyfed County Council also sought election.
