Meriden was a constituency[n 1] represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament.[n 2] It was named after the village of Meriden, halfway between Solihull and Coventry.
Further to the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the seat was abolished. Subject to boundary changes, it was reformed as new Meriden and Solihull East constituency, first contested in the 2024 general election.[2]
