Gilbert Heathcote-Drummond-Willoughby, 2nd Earl of Ancaster (29 July 1867 – 29 September 1951), known as Lord Willoughby de Eresby from 1892 to 1910, was a British Conservative politician.
Ancaster was the eldest son of Gilbert Henry Heathcote-Drummond-Willoughby, 1st Earl of Ancaster, and Lady Evelyn Elizabeth Gordon, daughter of Charles Gordon, 10th Marquess of Huntly. He was educated at Eton and Trinity College, Cambridge. In 1894 he was elected to Parliament for the Horncastle Division of Lincolnshire, a seat he held until shortly after the December 1910 general election, when he succeeded his father as second Earl of Ancaster and entered the House of Lords. Ancaster later held office as Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries under David Lloyd George from 1921 to 1922 and under Andrew Bonar Law and Stanley Baldwin from 1922 to 1924. Apart from his political career he was also Lord Lieutenant of Rutland from 1921 to 1951 and Joint Lord Great Chamberlain between 1910 and 1951.
Lord Aveland married Eloise Lawrence Breese, daughter of William Lawrence Breese, in 1905. He died in September 1951, aged 84, and was succeeded in his titles by his only son Gilbert James Heathcote-Drummond-Willoughby.
