Wells was a constituency[n 1] in Somerset in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament. Apart from between 2010-2015, Wells was represented by members of the Conservative Party since 1924.[n 2]
Further to the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the seat was abolished, with most of it being transferred to the new constituency of Wells and Mendip Hills, to be first contested at the 2024 general election.[2]
