Elections to Sheffield City Council were held on 8 May 1986. One third of the council was up for election. Since the 1984 election, the Conservatives had successfully defended two seats in Broomhill and Labour had held one of their Park seats in by-elections the following year. https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B1BWkO-jL09UOWZlMjEyM2UtMTkxNy00M2FkLWE3MjAtNTViNzI2MjBhYmY4&hl=en_US Sheffield Local Elections 1973-1995 scans 2011-06-20
