Portadown Times

The Portadown Times is a weekly tabloid newspaper sold in the town of Portadown in Co. Armagh and the neighbouring New Town of Craigavon. (Until recently its full title was the Portadown Times incorporating Craigavon News, but the Craigavon News appears to have been dropped some time in 2010.)

It was founded in 1922 as The Portadown Times. For three years from 1956 to 1959 it added the words and Portadown Express to its title; on dropping them again in 1960 it also dropped the initial The. It became the Craigavon Times in 1975, then two years later merged with The Portadown News and County Armagh Advertiser (itself an 1859 foundation) to become the Portadown News and Craigavon Times. It reverted to its current title in 1982.

It’s published by Morton Newspapers, a division of Edinburgh-based regional and local newspaper publishing giants Johnston Press. The editorial offices are in Portadown town.

It comes out on Fridays. An e-edition’s also available by paid subscription.
