Cadbury Heath is a suburb of Bristol, located in South Gloucestershire, England, United Kingdom. It is served by bus services 43, 44 and 45. It contains the infamous council estate Park Estate aka 'Banjo Island'Fact|date=March 2008. Public houses include "The Lamb" and "The King William IV," locally known as the "King Billy".

The King William IV Inn was built in the first half of the nineteenth century. It was certainly established by 1881 when the landlord was known to be a local butcher, Mr.H.Potter. He was followed by A.K.Bruton in 1903; William Roberts in 1905; Ellen J.Roberts for about 6 or 7 years, until the start of the Great War when, another lady, Mrs. Georgiana Lewis took over the tenancy. Sometime during the early 1920's Mr.Horace Frederick Bungay became the landlord, followed in 1928 by his widow Matilda Sarah Bungay who remained the landlady for around seven years, after which the tenancy was held by Robert Britton. He was certainly there at the outbreak of the second World War.

The suburb has a non-league football team, the grounds of which are opposite the King William. Cadbury Heath is located in South Gloucestershire's Oldland Parish, but is very close to the border with Bitton Parish. Neighbouring villages and suburbs include Oldland, Oldland Common and Longwell Green. The suburb is also very close to the Kingswood Museum, Which is open on Tuesdays from 1st October to 30th April, and on Tuesdays and Sundays from 1st May-30th September.
