ADMINISTRATIVE DIVISIONS Historical divisions Prior to the break up of the parish of Sheffield in , with the exception of most of Upper Hallam and parts of Ecclesall Bierlow, these townships formed the basis of the new Borough Constituency Of Sheffield . Subsequently, in 1843 this Borough constituency formed the basis of the Municipal Borough of Sheffield along with the parts of Upper Hallam and Ecclesall Bierlow omitted from the Borough constituency. Sheffield Municipal Borough was thereby formed from all six townships, and would ultimately become the City of Sheffield in ; Brightside ; Central ; Ecclesall ; and Hallam . Hillsborough and Park constituencies were added in 1918 after the City extended its boundaries. The Central and Ecclesall constituencies were abolished in 1950 and two new constituencies, Heeley and Neepsend , created. Neepsend was shortlived, being abolished by 1955 , and Park was abolished, to be replaced by a revived Central constituency in 1983 . Present-day divisions For the purposes of City Council elections Sheffield is divided into 28 electoral Ward s. There was a Local Government ward boundary review that came into effect in 2004 , evening out the number of voters per ward at 13,000 ± 10%. Parliamentary Constituencies are built out of whole numbers of local government wards within an administrative county. The current Parliamentary Boundary Review reported in 2005 , but the proposed changes will not be implemented until the next general election. Consequently, the Parliamentary Contituencies boundaries are currently not coterminous with the ward boundaries. The borough of Sheffield is currently (2005) covered by six Parliamentary Constituencies . These are:
Proposed future divisions The Boundary Commission proposals for South Yorkshire will see Sheffield's representation reduced from 6 to 5.5 seats, with one seat being shared with the Borough Of Barnsley . An inquiry was held in March 2005 , with the final recommendations published in September 2005 :
