The fifth election to the Carmarthenshire County Council was held in March 1901.[1] It was preceded by the 1898 election and followed by the 1904 election.
None of the retiring aldermen contested the election. There was also a vacancy following the death of W.O. Brigstocke, Blaenpant.[2]
There were only a small number of contested elections and the majorities were small in most instances.
This section summarises the detailed results which are noted in the following sections. In some cases there is an ambiguity in the sources over the party affiliations and this is explained below where relevant.
