Pembrokeshire County Council is the governing body for Pembrokeshire, one of the Principal Areas of Wales.
All council seats were up for election.
Boundary changes were introduced at this election. In the main, however, these resulted in the splitting of multi-member wards in urban areas into single-member wards. The Independents retained control of the authority although there was an increased number of party candidates. Most notably, the Conservative Party fielded a large slate of candidates for the first time. Three of these candidates were successful.
