  • Melton Mowbray (ofte kalt bare Melton) er administrasjonsbyen i distriktet Melton i Leicestershire, England. Byen er best kjent for sine særegne paier med svinekjøtt, men også for Meltonstoff, som først er nevnt i 1823. Det er et tettvevd ullstoff som er nappet slik at det blir mykt, som ofte brukes som for i jakker. En kjent episode fra byens historie har gitt opphav til et uttrykk; I 1837, da et jaktlag ledet av markien av Waterford feiret jaktlykken, malte den kraftig berusede markien bokstavelig talt flere bygninger i Melton Mowbray røde. Dermed ble «å male byen rød» et uttrykk for å feste skikkelig. St. Mary's Church fra det 13. århundre er den største sognekirken i Leicestershire. Den har et flott orgel, og det holdes orgelkonserter to ganger hver måned. Blant tidligere organister i kirken finner man Sir Malcolm Sargent. Byens museum, Melton Carnegie Museum, har blant annet en rekke malerier med jakt- og sportsmotiver, og en tohodet kalv. Melton Country Park er et stort turterreng med en innsjø, nær byens sentrum. I tillegg til pikniksteder, naturstier og lekeområder for barn finnes det et besøkssenter hvor det er utstilt arkeologiske funn fra området.
