"TODDINGTON, a parish in the lower division of Kiftsgate hundred, county Gloucester, 3½ miles N. of Winchcombe, its post town, and 7 E. of Aschurch station on the Bristol and Birmingham railway. The village is situated on the river Isborne, and on the high road from Tewkesbury to Stow. Toddington is mentioned in Doomsday book as being held by Herald, the father of John de Sudeley. The surface is in general flat, and the soil is of stiff clay. The living is a vicarage*, with the perpetual curacy of Stanley Pontlarge annexed, in the diocese of Gloucester and Bristol. The church, dedicated to St. Leonard, was rebuilt in 1723, near the site of the old one; its interior contains nine figures of the apostles, 18 feet in height, brought from Hailes Abbey. The parochial charities consist of ten tons of coal distributed to the poor on New Year's Day, and two oxen at Christmas. Lord Sudeley is lord of the manor and principal landowner."
