Milton Ford is an electoral ward in the district of West Devon in the county of Devon, England. It is predominantly rural, made up of rolling farmland, small hamlets and wooded valleys that feel very much on the fringes of the moorland countryside, with lanes and field patterns that reflect long agricultural use.
The local economy centres on farming and small rural businesses, with a modest contribution from countryside tourism and walking. Community life tends to be village-focused - parish halls, local clubs and the occasional community-run pub or shop - and the area’s historic character is visible in stone farmsteads, old lanes and traditional rural architecture, giving it a quiet, close-knit social feel.
