# Boothstown and Ellenbrook (ward)

Boothstown and Ellenbrook is an electoral ward of Salford, England. The ward was created in 2004 following recommendations made by the Boundary Committee for England.

These new boundaries were first contested on 6 May 2021 in all-out elections, requiring all three ward councillors to stand for re-election.
