Lincolnshire Echo

The Lincolnshire Echo is a weekly tabloid newspaper sold across the county of Lincolnshire (and the eastern fringes of Nottinghamshire).

For the first 118 years of its history it was a daily title (with two geographical editions – City and County, and Gainsborough – and a Sports edition), but it switched to weekly publication, and a page count of 184, in October 2011.

It’s published by Lincolnshire Media, part of Northcliffe Media (which in turn is the local and regional newspaper publishing wing of the Daily Mail and General Trust). The editorial offices are in Lincoln.

There are several Target companion freesheets distributed in towns around the county, including Boston, Gainsborough, Louth, Sleaford and Skegness, as well as in Lincoln itself.

It won the Regional Newspaper of the Year award from the Newspaper Society in 2005. The fact that it played a major part in exposing the corrupt activities of Jim Speechley, former Conservative head of Lincolnshire County Council and subsequently imprisoned for 18 months, may have had something to do with this.

It comes out on Thursdays.
