Toseland is a village in the English county of Cambridgeshire. It is located within the Huntingdonshire District Council, the nearest major town being St Neots. It is within 15 miles of Hemingford Grey, the former home of Lucy M. Boston, who used the name extensively in her Green Knowe books, inventing the imaginary placenames "Fen Toseland", "Toseland St Agnes" and "Toseland Gunning", and using it as a recurring first name in many generations of the same family.
Toseland got its name from Tolis Grove, which means Land of Tolis, a Viking that originally settled the area. before the town of St Neots grew, Toseland was the centre of politics for the Toseland Hundred, including the Paxtons, Yelling and Gravely.
