Edith Swannesha (Old English: , "Edith Gentle Swan"; c. 1025 – c. 1086), also known as Edith Swanneschals or Edith the Fair, is best known as the unwedded consort of King Harold II of England. Her common name comes from a historical misinterpretation that her nickname represented Old English swann hnecca, "swan neck". She is sometimes confused with Ældgyth, daughter of Ealdorman Ælfgar of Mercia, and Harold's Queen consort.
