1991 Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council election

Elections to Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council were held on 2 May 1991, with one third of the council up for election. Prior to the election, the defending councillor in Penistone West had changed their affiliation from Residents to Independent, ending the Residents presence on the council that had endured since its creation in 1973. The election resulted in Labour retaining control of the council.[1][2]
