The Bishop of Edmonton is an episcopal title used by an area bishop of the Church of England Diocese of London in the Province of Canterbury, England. The title takes its name after Edmonton, an area in the north of the London Borough of Enfield. The See (the bishop's official seat or jurisdiction) was erected under the Suffragans Nomination Act 1888 by Order in Council dated 29 May 1970.
The See was created to provide oversight for a new fourth suffragan area, initially comprising the deaneries of North and South Camden, Central and West Barnet, East and West Haringey, and Enfield. This was part of the diocese's 1970 experimental area scheme. Bishops suffragan of Edmonton have served as area bishops since the London area scheme was founded in 1979.
The episcopal title "Bishop of Edmonton" is one of three that are duplicated in the Anglican Communion. The other Bishop of Edmonton is a diocesan bishop in Canada.
