Toller Fratrum is a tiny, tucked‑away village and civil parish in Dorset, England, set on the chalk of the Dorset Downs. With only a handful of houses, narrow lanes and working farmsteads it retains a very peaceful, rural character and sits close to the neighbouring settlements of Toller Porcorum and Toller Whelme.
The name - “Toller of the brothers” - reflects a medieval association with the Knights Hospitaller, and a small historic church and several listed buildings still hint at that past. Traditionally agricultural, the parish today combines farming with a modest amount of tourism and residential use, and is popular with walkers and anyone seeking a quiet slice of classic Dorset countryside.
