Gower Rural District Council, Glamorgan, was created under the provisions of the Local Government Act 1894 and from 1918 comprised the parishes of Bishopston, Cheriton, Ilston, Llanddewi, Llangennith, Llanmadog, Llanrhidian Lower, Llanrhidian Higher, Nicholaston, Oxwich, Penmaen, Pennard, Penrice, Port Einon, Reynoldston and Rhossili. The Council comprised councillors and a chairman and initially replaced the local sanitary authorities.

Gower Rural District Council was abolished in 1974 following local government reorganisation and its functions were assumed by an enlarged Swansea City Council.
