Tode was a marshy location mentioned in the Shire-poem The Mewlips.[1]
It is mentioned to be after a long road "beyond the Merlock Mountains", and "through the spider-shadows"; other than that it is unknown if Tode refers to an actual marsh in the Westlands, or if it was just an invention by the poet.
As the poem describes a location similar to Mirkwood, it's possible that Tode refers to the marsh at the end of the Old Forest Road.[2]
