Bishopsworth is a suburban neighbourhood and electoral ward of the city of Bristol. It is located in the south of the city and has a high proportion of council housing. Local facilities include shops and pubs, a public library, community arts centre and an indoor skate park.
Bishopsworth electoral ward contains the Bedminster Down, Headly Park, Highridge and Uplands areas, and had a population of 12,274 at the 2021 census. Historically, as a civil parish separate from Bristol, Bishopsworth contained Hartcliffe and Withywood, and colloquially those are often still considered areas of Bishopsworth, though they are not within the current electoral ward.
