}}Cotham {{IPAc-en|ˈ|k|ɒ|t|əm}} is the name of both a council ward of the city of Bristol in the Southwest of England, United Kingdom, and a suburb of the city that falls within that ward. The ward comprises the Cotham suburb, and a small portion of Redland, which is another Bristol suburb.[2]

Cotham

Cotham is an affluent, leafy inner suburb of Bristol, England, situated between Clifton and St Pauls, and similar in character to Redland. According to the Census of 2011, Cotham had a resident population of 12,554.[1]

It is a cosmopolitan residential area with large old houses, many of which are used as hotels and bed and breakfast accommodation, or divided into flats, and a selection of small independent shops. It also contains the comprehensive Cotham School (formerly Cotham Grammar School).[3]

The top of Saint Michael's Hill in Cotham was one of the historical city limits of Bristol, and the traditional location for hangings.[4] Between 1555 and 1557 three Marian martyrs were burned to death here for their religious beliefs.[5] The gallows form one quarter of the badge of the local Rugby club, Cotham Park RFC.

Cotham Church was built in 1842–43 by William Butterfield in a Gothic Revival style, as Highbury Congregational Chapel.[6] It was Butterfield's first commission, obtained through his family's connection with William Day Wills of the tobacco firm W. D. & H. O. Wills . The apse, tower, south transept and school were added in 1863 by Edward William Godwin.[7] Since 1975 it has been an Anglican church.

Politics

Cotham is part of the parliamentary constituency of Bristol West. Since 2015 the Member of Parliament is Thangam Debbonaire, a Labour party member.

Cotham is represented by two councillors on Bristol City Council. Currently, these are Anthony Negus a Liberal Democrat and Dani Glazzard, a Green party member.[8]

Schools

Cotham is home to two different schools: Cotham School and Colston's Primary School
