Elford is a small village and civil parish in the district of Lichfield, Staffordshire, England, lying on the banks of the River Tame. Its compact historic core of stone cottages and a parish church gives it a distinctly rural, riverside character while larger centres such as Lichfield and Birmingham remain within easy reach.
Historically shaped by agriculture and the presence of a manor house, the community today is largely residential with farms and small local enterprises; it retains a close‑knit social life with village activities and listed buildings that reflect its long local history.
