Dorset County Chronicle
The Dorset coverage is very odd – the Sherborne Mercury is available for 1789-1867, but it’s subtitled the Western Flying Post and the Yeovil Mercury, and is clearly focused on northern Dorset and Somerset.
The newspaper produced in Dorset’s market town (Dorchester) was the Dorset County Chronicle, but there are ONLY five years’ worth (1863-67) of issues on the British Newspaper Archives site.
Dorchester was the legal, political, trade and administrative capital of the county and the Dorset County Chronicle would be the best newspaper for tracing the county’s history. The Chronicle was published from 1824.

Kenilworth Weekly News
The paper will be useful in showing the expansion and social changes in a rural community. Kenilworth was a small town of historical merit relying on agriculture & small local industry. The town expanded with the growth of nearby Coventry.

Ashton Reporter
A publication from Ashton under Lyne, the town which invented chips and fish and witnessed the Shaw family of brewers which spread to Merseyside and other towns in Lancashire such as Leigh. The Shaw family spawned an MP and local mayors. The Shaws were munificently generous leaving property and land to local residents and were generally very charitable.

Daily Telegraph
The Daily Telegraph's own archive only goes back to 1990. I'm particularly interested in Arts reviews - including TV and Radio - from the 1970s.

Suffolk Chronicle
This was the local paper which the poor read to each other in the early nineteenth century, and has a different angle to the 'establishment' Ipswich Journal and Bury and Norwich Post. It contains a lot of information which the other two don't, or that they look at with a very different bias

The Folkestone News
The Folkestone News (which had only a short lifespan) would be a great addition, as our local library has only a couple of years` worth.

Nottingham Review
This is an important regional newspaper in the period 1811-1817, the period of the Luddite uprisings, and it's inclusion on this website before the bicentenary ends is vital! It's proprietor, Charles Sutton, was convicted of libelling the Crown in 1816 & jailed.
