Ellesmere Port News
Probably the earliest newspaper dedicated to events in Ellesmere Port. There appears to have been at least two Issues: Number 1, 5th December 1908 and Number 2, 12th December 1908, but were any more published?

Manchester City News
When I was a child in the 1950s this was the newspaper we searched for references to events we had attended - Rose Queens etc which other newspapers hadnt room for. It also had a useful series on each of the Manchester suburbs at one time and was widely read in South Manchester.

Irish Tribune
This was the first newspaper printed in England for Irish Catholics. Published weekly by Charles Diamond in Newcastle upon Tyne between December 1884 and December 1895, the Irish Tribune claimed a readership of 4,000,000 Irish Catholics living in England, mixing local Catholic and Nationalist news, with tales from Irish history, fiction and fashion. The British Library holds almost 600 editions of this key source for the study of Irish Catholics in England in the nineteenth century.

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.

Thank you for getting in touch. We are super keen to include the St. James’s Gazette in the British Newspaper Archive project. So, the good news is that it is on our digitisation plan! As you can imagine we have a huge list to digitise. We will scan this as soon as possible. Please do keep an eye on the site!Best wishes,
Team BNA

Hartland Chronicle
This paper covered Western Devon and North Cornwall with local detail not included in the Western Morning News, Connishman & Cornish Telegraph, Devon & Exeter Gazette and Western Times (and others). OK, so there are already a lot of papers covering the South West, but perhaps you can squeeze in just one more?
