You could apply for a copy of the will DIRECT   from HMCTS    (at York I believe)
Nursall   ~    Buckinghamshire
Avies ~   Norwich

If you go here https://probatesearch.service.gov.uk/#wills and type in the name you are interested in you will see the same info as will be on Ancestry. The actual will is not shown, you have to send for that, not sure of cost as I have not sent for 1 for a while. The gov website & Ancestry only show an index to the wills.

Hope that helps.

What you've found on Ancestry is probably an index not the actual Will (see Gadget's link).

You can search for and order the will here- (see lubylou's link)
https://www.gov.uk/search-will-probate

If you still wish to use Ancestry check to see if your local library makes it available onsite.

From my understanding; Ancestry recently added more probate records to their collection. These records can be found online for free at https://probatesearch.service.gov.uk/#wills as others have said.

A 1993 probate generally includes name, address, date of death, type of probate, date of probate, how much money the deceased had left (sometimes not exceeding) as well as the folio number.
With this information you can order the will for £10 on the probate site.
Devon: Bibby, Bird, Chaplin, Davey, Littlejohns, Pope, Shire, Sloman, Tucker
Dorset: Gauler
Gloucestershire: Gauler
Hampshire: Kimber
London: Crump, Gauler
Middlesex: Crump
Monmouthshire: Brunt
Northumberland: Bibby
Somerset: Clarke, Dibble, Duddridge, Parsons, Pool, Poole, Shire, Silvester
Surrey: Clarke
Wiltshire: Gauler
