Melandra is a small garrison fort, it is situated on the western edge of Glossop within the Gamesley estate. The fort has been excavated by Manchester University and is a scheduled monument in the care of English Heritage. However, in modern times its major function seems to be as an exercise area for the estate's dogs.
