Melrose is a rural village in northeastern East Windsor, Connecticut.

A landscape of more than 250 acres (100 ha), including farmland, period farmhouses, ruins of a small distillery, and a district schoolhouse (now a library) was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.

The village is well removed from that river, occupying an area bounded on the west by the Scantic River, on the south by Broad Brook, and on the north and east by the neighboring towns of Enfield and Ellington.

There are numerous barns and other farm outbuildings in the area, an indicator of its long history of agricultural use.

The district schoolhouse was erected in 1850, and served the town until 1938, after which it was adapted for use as a library.
