The Town of Milford has a rich history. Separated from
Amherst and established as an independent town in 1794, Milford was a
prime stop on the Underground Railroad. Located in southern New Hampshire
on the banks of the Souhegan River, the town is named after the River's
shallow Mill Ford, so called after the many mills at this location in
the eighteenth century. Milford is still a favorable spot for business.
Made famous by the thriving granite industry and known as The Granite
Town in the Granite State, the town is about 10 miles West of Nashua
NH.
Today, opportunity and industry abound as is the traditional spirit of
this early New England town. Milford is an important commercial and employment
center for the surrounding Souhegan Valley communities. Centrally located
at the junction of Route 101 and Route 101A, Milford is home to a number
of manufacturing firms including two of the area's largest employers,
Hitchiner Manufacturing Company, Inc. and Hendrix Wire and Cable.
Cultural and recreational activities are plentiful in Milford. Four golf
courses are just a short distance away. Community programs, athletic
teams, and fraternal, religious, and other community organizations are
available for people of all ages to enjoy.
Milford is accessible from Nashua off of route 3 exits 7 or 8, following
route 101 A West, or from the North from Manchester, following route
101 West. It is conveniently located near Manchester airport and close
to 9 major hospitals, including St. Joseph’s Emergency Medical
Center located in town.
