Brooklands is an electoral division of Manchester City Council which has been represented since 1971. It covers the Brooklands area of Wythenshawe.

Overview

Brooklands ward was created in 1971, covering the northern portion of the Baguley ward and the western portion of the Northenden ward. In 1982, the ward's southern boundary became the Cheshire Lines Railway, then in 1994 that part of the ward to the west of Brooklands road was transferred from Manchester to the Metropolitan Borough of Trafford. A further city-wide boundary revision in 2004, transferred the Roundthorn area from the Baguley ward. The ward's boundaries were left largely unchanged at the latest revision in 2018.

From its creation until 1997, the ward formed part of the Manchester Wythenshawe Parliamentary constituency. Since 1997, it has formed part of the Wythenshawe and Sale East Parliamentary constituency.^{[citation needed]}
