Torver is a village and civil parish in the South Lakeland district of Cumbria, England, 3 miles (4.8 km) south west of the village of Coniston and 1 mile (1.6 km) west of Coniston Water. Farming has always played an important part in Torver's history, though slate mining increased when the Coniston branch of the Furness Railway was opened in the 19th century (it subsequently closed in 1958). Nowadays, the hamlet remains a starting point for many walks around the Duddon Valley and Coniston Water, an area popularised by William Wordsworth.

L'agriculture a toujours joué un rôle important dans l'histoire de Torver, bien que l'exploitation de l'ardoise ait augmenté lorsque le tronçon de voie ferrée de Coniston a été ouverte au XIXe siècle (fermée en 1958). De nos jours, le hameau est le point de départ de nombreuses promenades autour de la rivière Duddon et de Coniston Water (lac), une zone popularisée par William Wordsworth. (fr)
