DEEPING-MARKET, (Lincolnshire) among the fens on the N. side of Wayland r. 71 cm. 87 mm. from London, is an old, ill-
built, dirty T. with a Mt. on Th. and Fair Sept. 29. Below it is a plain many ms. in com. the deepest in all this marshy
country; and 'tis remarkable, that the channel of the r. Glen, which runs from the W. lies much higher than this plain.
This manor bel. anciently to the Wakes; but came to the crown, in the R. of Edw. III. by the Black Prince's marrying Joan
the Fair Maid of Kent, (daughter to Edmund Woodstock Earl of Kent, by the heiress of Tho. Wake) who had been twice married
before, and twice divorced.
