1562 warbixin ayaa ugu dambeyntii u sheegay in toban kaliya qalcadood ee waqooyiga boqortooyadeeda ay mudan yihiin in la ilaaliyo; Melbourne ma ahayn mid ka mid ah kuwan. Sahan dheeraad ah ee 1576 ayaa sheegay in, inkasta oo dhagxaanta ay ku jireen xaalad wanaagsan marka laga reebo hal qiiq iyo daaqad, qoryaha ayaa ku baaba'ay, saqafka hogaanka ayaa ka buuxa godad, hal jikada ayaa qarka u saaran burbur, mid kalena wuxuu u baahan yahay in la beddelo dabaqa. Isla sanadkaas, George Talbot, Earl 6aad ee Shrewsbury, ayaa u qoray boqoradda si uu ugu xaqiijiyo in qalcaddu ay ku jirtay xaalad wanaagsan, oo qiimihiisu yahay £ 1,000, waxaana lagu dayactiri karaa £ 100. Maaddaama uu mas'uul ka ahaa haysashada Mary, Queen of Scots, iyo 140-keeda, wuxuu ugu dambeyntii u xaqiijiyay inay Melbourne u guurto. 1583, kursigii caanka ahaa ee Melbourne Castle ayaa la dhigay, qoryaha ayaa sheegay in ay u baahnaayeen in laga saaro.
