The 2015 Barrow-in-Furness Borough Council election took place on 7 May 2015 to elect members of
Barrow-in-Furness Borough Council in Cumbria, England.[1] This was on the same day as other local elections
.
Control of the council was held by the Labour Party, who had won from no overall control at the 2011 elections.[2] Although Labour gained a higher percentage of the vote than in 2011, the Conservative Party gained 2 seats.[3] The Socialist People's Party, which had held seats in Barrow from 1998 until 2011, folded in 2015 and so did not run for election.
