Filton and Bradley Stoke is a constituency represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since 2024 by Claire Hazelgrove from the Labour Party.

History

The seat was created by the Boundary Commission for the 2010 general election.[2] The seat was formed by taking parts of the Bristol North West, Kingswood, and Northavon constituencies.

Boundaries

The seat was subject to moderate boundary changes, involving the gain of parts of the abolished Kingswood constituency, including the community of Emersons Green.[4] This was offset by the loss of the Bristol Channel hinterland including Severn Beach to an enlarged Thornbury and Yate, and Staple Hill and Mangotsfield, which moved into the re-established Bristol North East constituency.[5]
