'''Grantham''' adalah sebuah kota pasar yang berukuran menengah di [[Lincolnshire]], [[Inggris]] dengan penduduk sekitar 35.000 orang (40.000 termasuk [[Great Gonerby]]). Kota ini terletak di tepi [[Sungai Witham]], dan dilalui oleh [[East Coast Main Line]] (antara perhentian untuk [[stasiun kereta api Peterborough|Peterborough]] dan [[stasiun kereta api Newark North Gate|Newark Northgate]]) serta jalan utama [[jalan A1|A1]] dari [[London]] ke [[Edinburgh]] yang melaluinya (kota ini dilewatkan pada 1962). Daerah pertokoan utama di High Street, hingga baru-baru ini, adalah bagian dari [[jalan A52|A52]] yang sibuk (yang merentang ke [[Nottingham]] di dekatnya), dan ''Wharf Road'' dan ''London Road'' (di sebelah [[J Sainsbury|Sainsburys]]).
is a motorway-style [http://www.moto-way.com/page.cfm?Section=2&location=16&Category=Home service station] at the north end of the bypass, on the roundabout. The roundabout is in the process of being circumvented by a [http://www.highways.gov.uk/roads/projects/7052.aspx new junction]. The main local landmark is the [http://www.skyscrapernews.com/images/pics/1800StWulframsChurch_pic4.jpg impressive parish church] of [[Wulfram of Sens|St Wulframs]], which has the [[List of tallest churches in the world|sixth highest spire]] (282 ft) among English churches, and is also home to the country's first [[public library]]. In 1598, [[Francis Trigge Chained Library|Francis Trigge]], the rector of [[Welbourn]] gave £100 for a [[Francis Trigge Chained Library|small library]] of books for the clergy and ''literate laity'' of Grantham. Two hundred and fifty of the original volumes remain and are kept in the parish church.-->
Dua orang yang termasyhur di seluruh dunia yang terkait dengan kota ini adalah Sir [[Isaac Newton]], yang belajar di [[The King's School, Grantham]] yang masih ada hingga sekarang, dan Baroness [[Margaret Thatcher]], yang belajar di [[Kesteven and Grantham Girls' School]] (K.G.G.S). Thatcher, yang lahir di Grantham, masih diingat secara pribadi oleh banyak penduduk kota ini.
Secara politik, kota ini adalah bagian dari wilayah pemilihan [[Grantham dan Stamford (Konstituensi Parlemen Britania Raya|Grantham dan Stamford]] (baru-baru ini diubah), dan di Parlemen diwakili oleh [[Anggota Parlemen]] [[Partai Konservatif (Britania)|Partai Konservatif]] [[Member of Parliament]] [[Quentin Davies]], dan mempunyai sejarah yang panjang dalam memilih anggota-anggota Konservatif untuk Parlemen. Dewan setempat, Dewan Distrik South Kesteven, juga dipimpin oleh Konservatif. Anggota-anggotanya terdiri atas 31 Konservatif, 11 Independen, 10 Buruh dan 5 Demokrat Liberal. Hal ini berubah dari pimpinan Partai Buruh sebelumnya, dan mencerminkan perubahan demografi di wilayah ini. Desa-desa di South Kesteven yang lebih banyak penduduk [[kelas menengah]]nya membuat proporsi suara Konservatif di sini sulit ditandingi.

In 1905, [[Richard Hornsby & Sons|Richard Hornsby (1790-1864) & Sons]] of Grantham (founded 1815) invented the revolutionary caterpillar track, for use with Hornsby's [http://engines.rustyiron.com/hornsby ''oil'' engines]; these engines were invented by [[Herbert Akroyd Stuart]] from which [[Hot bulb engine|compression-ignition]] principle the [[diesel engine]] evolved. In 1909, they showed the British Army their invention, who were bemused, but took it no further than that. A short time later, Hornsby sold the patent for the [[caterpillar track]] in 1914 to Holt Tractors of [[California]], USA for $8,000. Thanks to the ownership of the patent, this company would become the world-dominating [[Caterpillar Inc.]] Tractor Company. [[Benjamin Holt]] even claimed to be the real inventor. In 1914, the [[British Army]]'s Colonel [[Ernest Dunlop Swinton|Ernest Swinton]] saw one of Holt's caterpillar tractors towing a piece of [[artillery]], and realised its literally ground-breaking role as an attack vehicle. One year later the [[tank]] was born, being made in nearby [[Lincoln, Lincolnshire|Lincoln]] by [[William Foster & Co. Ltd|William Foster]]. It first saw action at the [[Battle of Flers-Courcelette]] on [[September 15]] [[1916]].

During the famous [[Dambusters]] [[Royal Air Force]] (RAF) mission in May 1943, the [[RAF Bomber Command]]'s [[No. 5 Group RAF|No. 5 Group]] and the operation HQ, as [[Barnes Wallis]] nervously learnt the grim news, was in a building which later housed a county council education department, and was built by Richard Hornsby & Sons in 1865, and is now a private house. In 1944 (including [[D-Day]]), this was the headquarters for the USA's [[Ninth Air Force|9th]] (IX) Troop Carrier Command, being known as Grantham Lodge. [[RAF Spitalgate]] trained pilots in the war, and was not an operational base.
[[Aveling & Porter]] of [[Rochester, Kent|Rochester]], Kent, would join with [[Barford & Perkins]] of [[Peterborough]] to become [[Aveling-Barford]] Ltd in 1934, largely due to financial help from [[Ruston & Hornsby]]. The new company took a former site of Hornsbys, naming it the '[[Invicta (motto)|Invicta]]' works, which is from the motto on the coat of arms of [[Kent]], and translates as 'unconquered'. It did not fare well with the sinking market for large [[Dump truck|dumper truck]]s and road rollers, and now as [[Barford Construction Equipment]], it makes dumpers for construction sites, being owned by Wordsworth Holdings PLC(USA). A trailer company, [http://www.fruehauf.co.uk Crane-Fruehauf], has moved into part of the factory, from its former home of [[Dereham]], when it went into [[receivership]] in early 2005.

The food processing industry now employs the largest contingent of Grantham's citizens, including Fenland Foods (part of Northern Foods) on the Earlesfield Industrial Estate, Moypark (formerly Padley), and a large [[Frozen food|frozen vegetable]] factory (PAS) near [[Easton, Lincolnshire|Easton]]. The [[Woodland Trust]] is based on ''Dysart Road''. There is a small FM transmitter near the town's bypass on ''Gorse Lane'' from which [[BBC Radio Lincolnshire|Radio Lincolnshire]] can be heard on 104.7 and [[Lincs FM]] on 96.7.-->
