This little postbox serves what would be considered the main village, while the parish has a couple outlying hamlets such as West and East Melbury which each have their own. It is emptied finally at 5pm on weekdays and at 10:30am on Saturdays.
The shapely slopes of Melbury Hill can be seen in the background.

WWII Dorset - Spread Eagle Hill, Melbury Abbas: anti-tank cubes (1)
-
At Melbury Abbas on the village outskirts on Spread Eagle Hill are two anti-tank blocks on the east side of the road, and a single one opposite on the other side. Dating from the dark days of 1940 or 1941, they once may have formed part of a wartime road block on the minor road south between Melbury Abbas and Blandford.
