Sheffield Neepsend was a short-lived
Parliamentary constituency in the
City of Sheffield,
England. The constituency was created in 1950 and abolished in 1955, presumably due to its low number of electors - never exceeding 50,000. It was one of the safest
Labour Party seats, and this was why its first MP, Harry Morris, agreed to step down in order that Government Minister
Frank Soskice could gain a seat in the Commons in the 1950
by-election.
