Todenham Village
Todenham village has a population of 240, a considerable number of these still employed in agriculture or equestrianism; indeed a recent Grand National winner has chosen to make his home here. The village is quite linear, straddling both sides of a rural lane and centred on the Farriers Arms and the church of St Thomas.

The pub has a wonderful cosy atmosphere and meals are served every lunchtime and evening. Within a fifteen minute stroll of the village there is also the Fox and Hounds at Great Wolford, another great pub which serves meals every day except Monday evening.
There are a variety of wonderful walks that emanate from the village, most notably down the side of the impressive Todenham Manor and across the fields following the direction of the old road to Burmington.
Little evidence is left other than a small stone footbridge and a fording point across the river, now home to a range of wildlife including otters, kingfishers and crayfish.
In the other direction you can visit the site of the medieval village of Ditchford, its streets still clearly visible from the air, and continue on to Lemington Lakes where you can buy a daily pass and enjoy a spot of coarse fishing on one of its four lakes.
