Toodyay, Administrative division in Western Australia, Australia.

The Shire of Toodyay incorporates multiple residential areas and spans across extensive territories in the Wheatbelt region, 85 kilometers northeast of Perth.

Originally established in 1836, Toodyay underwent relocation in the 1860s due to flooding issues, and its name changed from Newcastle to Toodyay in 1910.

The name derives from the Aboriginal word 'Duidgee,' reflecting the Ballardong Noongar people's connection to this fertile land along the Avon River.

The administrative center provides essential government services to residents while maintaining records and coordinating local development projects throughout the region.

The Newcastle Gaol, constructed in 1865, now serves as a museum that documents the history of local governance and early settlement patterns.
