Woodford is on the D'Aguilar Highway 73.4 km by road north-north-west of Brisbane and 24.3 km north-west of Caboolture.

In 1841 the Archer brothers established Durundur Station along the Stanley near where Woodford now stands.

The town was positioned on a hill closer to the Stanley River than the present day town. When the introduction of a regular mail service required the town to have an official name a meeting was called and McConnel was decided on in honour of the senior partner of Durundur Station - but the Postmaster General would not accept that name. Therefore, another meeting was called and those present called it Woodford in honour of the junior partner, Henry Conwell Wood, and in recognition of the importance to the community of the ford across the river.

Timber cutting was the town's main industry. Most of the timber sourced from the area was sent to a sawmill in Caboolture.
