Why called Melleford?
The Melleford name has a clear & interesting, if not obvious, meaning.
The name Melleford originates from the Domesday Book of 1086 when the village (now called Milford on Sea) was an established Saxon settlement and known as Melleford. At that time there was an estimated population of around 50 people.
For a short time, the village became known Melleford on Sea, before settling on the current name, Milford on Sea. The origin of the name Milford is simply 'A Mill by a Ford'.
It is believed that The Old Mill sits on the site of a mill dating back to the Domesday Book, over a thousand years ago.
The Old Mill is Grade II-listed, and the home undertook a magnificent makeover around 2017. Click here to read more. Click here to read more.
Until early last century Milford on Sea was essentially an agricultural settlement centred on the village green and the High Street.
Melleford Restaurant overlooks the village green which is the last remains of the original ancient common land.
Many tales persist of smuggling in the area, thanks to the parish’s ideal proximity to the coast and forest.
Today the village population is in the region of 5000 people.
