Torhthelm was a medieval Bishop of Leicester in Mercia. He became bishop in 737 when Nothhelm, archbishop of Canterbury, divided a large see formerly held by Ealdwine in two. Torhthelm was responsible for the Middle Angles.[1]

Torhthelm's date of birth is unknown. The location of his see is also unknown. Some sources say it was located in Leicester, but this is uncertain.[1]

Torhthelm died in 764.[2]
