Todber is a village and civil parish in the county of Dorset in southern England. It lies in the Blackmore Vale in the North Dorset administrative district, about 5 miles (8.0 km) south-west of Shaftesbury. The underlying geology is Corallian limestone.[1] In the 2011 census the parish had 55 households and a population of 140.[2]
In 1086 Todber was recorded in the Domesday Book as Todeberie;[3] it was in the hundred of Gillingham, the lord was Geoffrey Mallory and the tenant-in-chief was William of Mohun. It had one mill, 12 acres (4.9 ha) of meadow and 2 ploughlands.[4]
Todber parish church was rebuilt in the Early English and Perpendicular styles in 1879, though the tower is of earlier construction.[5]
Todber is one of four parishes—the others being East Stour, Stour Provost and West Stour—under the governance of The Stours Parish Council.[6]
