Name
Milford Mill Road is given its name from an old mill once located on the road, which dates back to 1728. Slade Avenue was named in honor of William A. Slade, a former Baltimore County sheriff and postmaster. Smith Avenue, which was laid out in 1860 along the south side of Wellwood, was named after Joseph Smith.
The area where the road intersects with Liberty Road has often been referred to as "Milford Mill," but is really called "Milford."
