ANCASTER, (Lincolnshire) 8 m. from Grantham, is a small, but ancient, Roman village, on a Roman highway, under a hill, which abounds with remnants of antiquity; the sale of which has, for many years, been carried on by the inh. for after a hasty shower, the shepherds and school-boys go to seek them in the neighbouring declivities and quarries. The T. consists of one street along the road, and has a spring at each end of it; but, it is said, there's no other from hence to Lincoln, which is 14 m. It has the honour of giving the title of Duke to the noble family of Bertie.
