Melbourne is a small town located in Derbyshire, in the East Midlands region of England. It lies approximately 10 miles south of Derby city centre.
The town is notable for Melbourne Hall, a substantial country house with gardens that are open to the public during summer months. The hall has been a significant landmark in the area for centuries and represents an important example of English country house architecture and design.
Melbourne also features a parish church, All Saints' Church, which reflects the town's long history as a settlement. Like many small English towns, Melbourne has developed around its historic core while serving the surrounding rural area.
