DISCOVERY OF A ROMAN FORD.—Last week, during
the progress of the works for the improvement of Upper
Witham, the excavators laid bare the Roman ford on the
Foss read from Lincoln to Newark. It is eight chains
south of the Bracebridge.bridge. The floor or bed is corn-
p-)ed of stone, gravel, and concrete, so very bard that al-
though only 20 yards long (the width of theriver) and 30f$
in breadth, the men were engaged two days before they
lowered the bed 18 inches. There is every reason to sup-
pose that the causeway may be found on the lowlood
and
leading from theford to Bracebrid
ge village.
uridges appear to htve been erected over t
at different periods
