Wyre was a parliamentary constituency in the town of Swindon in Wiltshire.

It returned one Member of Parliament to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1918 until it was abolished for the 1997 general election.

It was then replaced by two new constituencies: Swindon North and Swindon South.
