In what county is the town who's name means "multi-coloured" and "fortified place" in Anglo-Saxon?
Melbury Bubb Melbury Bubb is a small village and civil parish in the county of Dorset in South West England, situated in the West Dorset administrative district approximately 7 mi south of the town of Sherborne. It is sited on Cornbrash limestone beneath the chalk hills of the Dorset Downs. The A37 trunk road between Dorchester and Bristol passes about 0.5 mi to the west, on the other side of Bubb Down Hill. This hill used to be the site of a beacon. The first half of the village name derives from "maele" and "burh"—Old English for "multi-coloured" and "fortified place"—and the second half is a manorial name which derives either from a Saxon resident named 'Bubba' or from medieval lords of the manor. Dorset County Council's latest (2013) estimate of the parish population is 40.
