Cork Mercantile Chronicle
This paper operated in Cork between 1802 and 1835 according to here: https://www.library.mun.ca/qeii/maritimehistory/newspapers/newsuk/130/ which says they also have this paper on microfilm, so you should be able to get it easily.

The Inquirer (Unitarian newspaper)
The Inquirer (Unitarian newspaper) would be a fabulous resource. Unitarian Chapels were/are all over the country so this would be useful for many researchers. Thanks for your consideration!

The Passing Show
A magazine that ran from 1915 to the mid-1930s and printed political cartoons from around the world. What's not to like?

The Critic
Can I suggest the Critic, which was the Private Eye of its day. It began life as the African Critic and was originally based in South Africa. It moved to London around 1898. Its editor Henry Hess had a splendid disregard for the libel law and exposed a number of financial frauds. He was frequently sued. A new editor took over in around 1905 and although the magazine became less edgy it could still publish hard-hitting exposes. It ceased publication in about 1915. I believe the British Library has a complete run of the magazine.

The Football Times
Currently kept at Inverness Library as part of the Inverness Advertiser, collection this newspaper would be an excellent addition to the archives as an essential research tool for sports historian in the Highlands. A Saturday newspaper, it was a key publication for many decades for sports followers, especially football covering leagues and achievements in around the Highland region.

This newspaper will give so much information on the Culm Valley and Blackdowns; the more rural areas not really covered by the newspapers much further away

St. James's Gazette: An Evening Review and Record of News (1880–1905)
This paper's contributors included J. M. Barrie (helping him make his name), Edmund Gosse, Sidney Low, and Margaret Oliphant. I constantly find it cited for reviews of late-Victorian books, but I have a lot of trouble finding the reviews and reading them.
