The town is also home to Melton Cloth, a thick, woolen, heavily milled nap cloth used in sailors' peacoats and donkey jackets, as well as loggers 'cruising jackets' and Mackinaws. Melton Mowbray is also said to be home of the phrase 'painting the town red', said to come from when the Marquess of Waterford and his hunting companions liberally applied red paint to buildings in the main street after a succesful hunt. The town has been a market town for over 1000 years, and was the only market town in Leicestershire at the time of the Domesday book. Melton Mowbray is served by rail, and lies on the Midland Main Line with services to Nottingham.
