1918–1950: The County Borough of Sheffield wards of St Peter's and St Philip's, and part of Broomhall ward.

1950-1983: See other seats.

;Second creation (current)

1983–1997: The City of Sheffield wards of Burngreave, Castle, Manor, Netherthorpe, and Sharrow.

1997–2010: as above plus Nether Edge

Sheffield City Council was subject to new ward boundaries from 2004, which removed Castle, Manor, Netherthorpe and Sharrow, whilst adding Central and Manor Castle wards.

2010–2016: The City of Sheffield wards of Broomhill, Central, Manor Castle, Nether Edge, and Walkley (as they existed on 12 April 2005).

2016–2024: Following a local government boundary review,{{Cite web |last=LGBCE |title=Sheffield {{!}} LGBCE |url=https://www.lgbce.org.uk/all-reviews/sheffield |access-date=2024-12-22 |website=www.lgbce.org.uk |language=en}} which did not effect the parliamentary boundaries, the contents of the constituency were as follows with effect from May 2016:

The City of Sheffield wards of Broomhill & Sharrow Vale, City, Manor Castle, Nether Edge & Sharrow, and Walkley; and parts of the wards of Crookes & Crosspool, Ecclesall, Fulwood and Hillsborough.

2024–present: Further to the 2023 periodic review of Westminster constituencies which came into effect for the 2024 general election, the constituency comprises:

The City of Sheffield wards of: Broomhill & Sharrow Vale; City; Nether Edge & Sharrow; and Walkley.{{Cite web |title=The 2023 Review of Parliamentary Constituency Boundaries in England – Volume two: Constituency names, designations and composition – Yorkshire and the Humber {{!}} Boundary Commission for England |url=https://boundarycommissionforengland.independent.gov.uk/2023-review/the-2023-review-of-parliamentary-constituency-boundaries-in-england-volume-two-constituency-names-designations-and-composition/the-2023-review-of-parliamentary-constituency-boundaries-in-england-volume-two-constituency-names-designations-and-composition-yorkshire-and-the-humber/#lg_sheffield-central-bc-70453 |access-date=22 June 2024 |website=boundarycommissionforengland.independent.gov.uk}}

The Manor Castle ward was transferred to Sheffield Heeley, bringing the electorate within the permitted range. Other minor losses to align with new ward boundaries.

;Present boundaries

The seat covers central Sheffield and extends as far as Nether Edge and the Lower Walkley. It covers a similar area to the former Sheffield Park seat. It borders Sheffield Hallam, Sheffield Heeley, Sheffield Brightside and Hillsborough and Sheffield South East.

History

=1885–1950=

Created under the Redistribution of Seats Act 1885 for the election that year, Sheffield Central was one of five divisions of the former Sheffield constituency. Sheffield Central was abolished in 1950 and the sitting MP, Harry Morris, stood and won in the new seat (now extinct) of Sheffield Neepsend.

=1983–present=

;Revival

In varied form the constituency was brought back into existence for the 1983 general election.

;MPs

Labour's Richard Caborn represented Sheffield Central from its recreation in 1983 until he retired in 2010 and was narrowly succeeded at the ballot box by another Labour MP, Paul Blomfield. Blomfield retired for the 2024 general election, with the Labour Party selecting Sheffield city councillor Abtisam Mohamed to fight the seat, beating Eddie Izzard in the selection contest.{{cite web |title=Join our Cloud HD Video Meeting |url=https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85716517533?pwd=bGpaRTBHT0ZXVlVoaUhrV3E1VktHUT09 |access-date=6 December 2022 |website=Zoom Video}}{{cite web |date=5 December 2022 |title=Eddie Izzard fails in bid to become Labour MP |url=https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2022/dec/05/eddie-izzard-fails-in-bid-to-become-labour-mp-sheffield-central |access-date=6 December 2022 |website=The Guardian}} Mohamed was duly elected with a much reduced, but still comfortable majority.

;Winning margin

The 2015 result made the seat the 32nd-safest of Labour's 232 seats by percentage of majority.{{cite web |url=http://www.ukpolitical.info/labour-mps-elected-2015.htm |title=Labour Members of Parliament 2015 |website=UK Political.info |archive-date=29 September 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180929214847/http://www.ukpolitical.info/labour-mps-elected-2015.htm |url-status=live}}

Labour majorities since 1983 in Sheffield Central have been in the top quartile save for 2010, when the Liberal Democrat share of the vote came 0.4% short of winning the seat — a highly marginal result.

;Opposition parties

The Green Party took second place in 2015, gaining a +12.1% swing (compared with +2.8% nationwide). This was the main target seat of the party in Yorkshire. Its 2012-2016 Leader Natalie Bennett, chose to settle locally on stepping down from the policy-steering role in 2016 and had chosen to contest Sheffield Central at the 2017 general election, when its vote share halved and they fell back to third place. The Green candidate at the 2024 general election regained second place with 26% of the vote. Lib Dem candidates scored variable second places in 1997, 2001, 2005 and 2010 then took fourth place in 2015.

;Turnout

Turnout has ranged from 62.5% in 1987 to 49.5% in 2001.

Constituency profile

The constituency has a working population whose income is close to the national average and lower than average reliance upon social housing.{{Cite web|url=https://www.ons.gov.uk/help/localstatistics|title=Local statistics - Office for National Statistics|website=www.ons.gov.uk}} At the end of 2012 the unemployment rate in the constituency stood as 4.0% of the population claiming jobseekers allowance, see table.{{cite web|url=http://www.theguardian.com/news/datablog/2010/nov/17/unemployment-and-employment-statistics-economics|title=Unemployment: the key UK data and benefit claimants for every constituency|last1=Rogers|first1=Simon|last2=Evans|first2=Lisa|date=17 November 2010|website=The Guardian}}
