The Star in the East
Radical newspaper published in Wisbech, involved in early Co-operative movement. The newspaper was founded in September 1836 by James Hill (father of Octavia Hill, social reformer and founder of the National Trust), a prominent Wisbech businessman, reformer, and follower of the utopian socialist Robert Owen. It served as a vehicle for Owenite ideas, women's rights, and working-class reform.

Birmingham Daily Mail 1874
Aston Villa was effectively formed when four men made the decision to play soccer not rugger. This took place under a gas lamp at the top of Heathfield Road at Villa Cross.

In 1924 a former Villa player who was there under the lamp when the decision was made, said the match report appeared in the Birmingham Daily Mail.
