Kingsmead, Bath

Kingsmead is a largely residential electoral ward within Bath, England.

Kingsmead is rarely used as the name of an area of Bath, and is primarily used just for electoral purposes within the Bath and North East Somerset unitary authority, electing two councillors. Kingsmead stretches about 1 mile (1.6 km) westward from the western edge of the city centre, straddling the A4 road north of the River Avon. The ward is separated by the large Royal Victoria Park into a near city centre eastern end, and a western residential end sometimes called Lower Weston.

St Andrew's Church of England Primary School is located in the north-east corner of the ward.

Residents in the western end of the ward often use the facilities, such as schools, of the neighbouring Newbridge and Weston wards, and associate themselves with these localities. The Chelsea Road shopping area, normally considered as the Newbridge shops, is part of the ward's western boundary so half of these shops are within Kingsmead ward. The eastern industrial units of Locksbrook are also within the ward.

The closed Mangotsfield and Bath Branch Line formerly ran through the ward from Bath Green Park railway station, now a shopping area, through Weston (Bath) railway station in the west of the ward. The Bristol & Bath Railway Path runs through the ward, but on the River Avon path rather than the old railway track which has been developed on within the city.

The electoral wards surrounding the ward are: Newbridge to the west, Weston and Lansdown to the north, Abbey to the east, and Widcombe and Westmoreland to the south over the River Avon.
