MILTON is a town in Shoalhaven district in the south coast area of New South Wales. It was founded in the middle of the 19th century.

The Milton-Ulladulla-Mollymook area was seen by Captain James Cook in 1770 when sailing north along the east coast of Australia and he also noted the nearby Pigeon House Mountain.

The Reverend Thomas Kendall was the first European settler in the area. As a second occupation he started cutting cedar at Narrawallee Creek near Milton.

The town is classified by the Australian National Trust. This is because of the significant number of homes and buildings remaining in the town that were built from 1870 onwards. Milton is also known to have one of the world's largest fig trees.
