Dalwood
 
Dalwood was a chapelry of Stockland, in the liberty of Fordington in the county of Dorset until 1842. 
In that year, together with Stockland, it was transferred to Devon in exchange for Thorncombe. 
Anciently, it was located within the old Dorset Hundred of Whitway.
The Parish Register has been damaged and is, in parts, illegible.
