South Milford is a village and civil parish in the district of Selby in North Yorkshire, sitting roughly halfway between Leeds and Selby. It lies close to main transport links and the old railway line, with the historic Milford Junction nearby, which helped shape the settlement’s growth; the surrounding landscape is a patchwork of farmland and green corridors, making it popular with walkers and commuters alike.
Historically the village grew around agriculture and the coming of the railways, and later felt the influence of nearby coalfields and light industry; today it functions largely as a commuter community with local shops, a primary school and active village groups. Its mix of Victorian and more modern housing, regular train services and proximity to towns such as Sherburn in Elmet and Selby give it a quiet, community feel while keeping larger urban centres within easy reach.
