Scunthorpe Telegraph

The Scunthorpe Telegraph is a weekly newspaper published in tabloid format and sold in the town of Scunthorpe and its surrounding area, incorporating most of the North Lincolnshire unitary authority area and neighbouring parts of Lindsey.

It was founded in 1937 as an offshoot of the Grimsby Evening Telegraph. It’s published by the Grimsby & Scunthorpe Media Group, part of Northcliffe Media (which is the regional newspaper division of the Daily Mail & General Trust).

It was formerly the Scunthorpe Evening Telegraph, but dropped the “Evening” some time in the Noughties.

In July 2011 it was announced that the Telegraph would switch to weekly publication as of the next month, in view of the changing nature of the market. The last daily edition went out on Friday 12 August, with the first weekly issue appearing on Thursday 18 August.

There’s a companion weekly freesheet, which shares the website and the editorial offices: the Scunthorpe Target.

It comes out on Thursdays.
