Glastonbury and Somerton is a constituency of the House of Commons in the UK Parliament.[2] Further to the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, it was first contested at the 2024 general election.[3] It has been represented since 2024 by Sarah Dyke of the Liberal Democrats.

Under the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the constituency was defined as being composed of the following as they existed on 1 December 2020:

  • The District of Mendip wards of: Butleigh and Baltonsborough; Glastonbury St. Benedict’s; Glastonbury St. Edmund’s; Glastonbury St. John’s; Glastonbury St. Mary’s; Street North; Street South; Street West.
  • The District of South Somerset wards of: Blackmoor Vale; Bruton; Burrow Hill; Camelot; Cary; Curry Rivel, Huish & Langport; Hamdon; Islemoor; Martock; Milborne Port; Northstone, Ivelchester & St. Michael’s; Tower; Turn Hill; Wessex; Wincanton.[4]

With effect from 1 April 2023, the Districts of Mendip and South Somerset were abolished and absorbed into the new unitary authority of Somerset.[5] Consequently, the constituency now comprises the following electoral divisions of Somerset from the 2024 general election:

  • Castle Cary; Curry Rivel and Langport; Glastonbury; Martock; Somerton; Street; Wincanton and Bruton; and small parts of Brympton, Coker, Mendip South, and South Petherton and Islemoor.[6]

The seat is made up of the following areas of Somerset:[6]

Constituency profile

Electoral Calculus characterised the proposed seat as "Strong Right", with right-wing economic and social views, high home ownership levels and strong support for Brexit.[7] In its coverage of the 2024 general election, the BBC had calculated that the changed boundaries made the new seat notionally Conservative; thus, when Sarah Dyke won the seat during the election, her victory was categorised as "Liberal Democrat gain from Conservative".[8]
