Melton South

Melton South, a residential suburb, is 35 km north-west of central Melbourne. It is south of the Western Freeway and on the Melbourne to Ballarat railway, with the Melton railway station.

The station was about 1 km from the Melton village on the highway, and looked out on open country with little more than a chaff mill, a railway, post office and the Melton Railway Station primary school (1911). The school was given a new building in 1925, two years after being renamed Melton South.
