Scalford is a village and civil parish in the Melton borough of Leicestershire, England. It lies 4 miles to the north of Melton Mowbray at the southern end of the Vale of Belvoir.

The name of the village is derived from Old English and originally meant shallow ford. It has retained its current spelling for at least 440 years, being shown as 'Scalford' on the map of Warwickshire and Leicestershire produced (in Latin) in 1576.
Scalford Methodist Church was built in 1844 and is unusual in that it has a garden and its own cemetery. There is a war grave at the chapel and also one wargrave at the church [which also has a fine war memorial to the first and second world wars].
