Swansea was one of the four local government districts of West Glamorgan, Wales from 1974 to 1996. It was formed from the county borough of Swansea, along with all of Gower Rural District. The new local authority was named the District and City of Swansea.

It was a merger in 1996 with most of the Lliw Valley to form the City and County of Swansea.
