Corfton is a small village in Shropshire, England, located 5 miles (8.0 km) east of Craven Arms and 8 miles (13 km) north of Ludlow, the two nearest towns.

There is a pub, with its own small brewery (the Corvedale Brewery), called The Sun Inn.[1]

It is named after the nearby River Corve.

The Corvedale Three Castles Walk runs through the village.
