Sleaford

Market town in Lincolnshire, eastern England, 27 km/17 mi south of Lincoln; population (2001) 14,500. Features include a 12th-15th-century church, its half-timbered vicarage, and Carre's Hospital (a group of almshouses). Carre's Grammar School was founded here in 1604.

The original settlement was to the east of the modern town, and objects found on the site give evidence of Iron Age, Roman, and Anglo-Saxon occupation.
