Sherwood is a small neighbourhood in west Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Originally part of the Town of Jasper Place, it became a part of Edmonton when Jasper Place amalgamated with Edmonton in 1964.
The neighbourhood is bounded on the west by 156 Street, on the east by 149 Street, on the north by 95 Avenue, and on the south by 92 Avenue.
The community is represented by the West Jasper/Sherwood Community League which maintains a community hall, outdoor rink and tennis courts located at 152 Street and 96 Avenue. The Sherwood Community League operated as a separate entity from 1949 until 1985 when it merged with the West Jasper Place Community League.
