Fisherwick is a civil parish in Lichfield District in Staffordshire, England. Located about 4 miles (6 km) east of the City of Lichfield, the parish does not include a village, just a scattered collection of farms and houses. The population in the UK census of 2001 was 211. The ancient settlement, dating back to the 12th century, and the manor of Fisherwick Park no longer exist. The current parish council is a joint one with Whittington.

In 1934 Fisherwick absorbed its southern neighbour, the parish of Tamhorn.
