Dialling code: 01761 (Temple Cloud)

Midsomer Norton Redfield is an electoral ward covering part of the town of Midsomer Norton in the unitary authority of Bath and North East Somerset, north‑east Somerset. It occupies land on the edge of the old Somerset coalfield, sitting close to open countryside and within easy reach of nearby towns and cities such as Radstock, Bath and Bristol, which makes it a popular spot for commuters as well as locals who enjoy rural walks.

Historically the area grew up around coal mining and retains pockets of Victorian housing and a strong sense of local identity; today the ward is largely residential with independent shops, community groups and small businesses supporting everyday life. Local events and volunteer organisations help keep a lively social scene, while the mix of families and older residents reflects its transition from an industrial past to a quieter, community‑centred present.
