Cambrian News

The Cambrian News is a weekly tabloid newspaper sold in a vast circulation area covering much of Mid-Wales, North Wales and West Wales including Bala, Criccieth, Dolgellau, Machynlleth, Porthmadog, Pwllheli and Tywyn to the north and Ceredigion, Newcastle Emlyn, Lampeter and Aberaeron to the south. It’s based in Aberystwyth.

It was founded in Bala in 1860 as the Merioneth Herald but took on its present name in 1864. It’s been owned by the Tindle Newspaper Group since 1998 and is Wales’s second largest circulating newspaper.

There are currently five local editions:

  • Aberystwyth
  • Arfon & Dwyfor
  • Machynlleth & Llanidloes
  • Meirionnydd
  • South Ceredigion

The three southern editions go to press on Tuesday; the two Gwynedd editions (Meirionnydd and Arfon & Dwyfor) on Wednesday.

The Cambrian News used to have several local websites but now has a single site for the whole distribution area, with community news sections for the various localities.
