  1. Leigh Chronicle

    Exceptional Lancashire newspaper very rich in historical content c/w special detailed feature sections on local industries and historical contributions by local historians. Also has an annual 'Diary of Local Events' which lists the key events of the previous year. I've spent hundreds of hours reading this publication and can vouch for it as being essential local reading. It ran from c. 1857 until the early 1960's.

  4. Halstead Gazette

    Hi Jane
    Thank you for the suggestion. We have investigated this title and have some good news for you – Halstead Gazette fits with our criteria and The British Library have sufficient holdings! We have now added it to our lengthy digitisation plan for the years 1857-1871. We have had to limit to 1871 due to current copyright restrictions with the rightsholder.

    We aim to get the best geographical coverage of the UK and will of course continue to add titles from all regions of the UK – including smaller locales.

    Please keep an eye on our newsletters and social media pages for updates on titles which are newly added to the British Newspaper Archive – i.e. truly hot off the digital press!

    Best wishes,

    Team BNA

  9. Nottingham Gazette

    A short-run regional newspaper between 1813-1815 that was notorious for countering the rival Nottingham Review. I understand the BL has the full run of this paper.
