History of Newton News
“Newton News” and its predecessor “The Newtonian” have been an important means of communication in Newton Aycliffe for over 60 years. The new town residents were receiving free news sheets in the late 1940′s. A Residents Committee published the “Newtonian” monthly, selling advertising space to cover print costs and organised free distribution to each new house as it became occupied. Newton Press started business as the town’s printers in August 1963 and later took over the printing of “The Newtonian” changing to newspaper format; running the publication on a commercial basis, yet continuing to deliver copies free of charge to each household.
In 1969 “Newton News” evolved and was distributed to a now much enlarged population by-weekly. The publication became a “weekly” in 1984 with a circulation of 13,000, serving the new town and surrounding villages. “The Newtonian” now incorporated with the “Newton News”, claims to be the first FREE newspaper, distributed to each home and financed entirely from advertising revenue in the UK.
With the advances in new technology Newton News is now global via the world wide web (www) and ex-Newtonians scattered all over the world log in on a regular basis to catch up on events “back home” in Newton Aycliffe.
Adding our online presence to our printed version we now have a readership of 45,000+ per week.
This new app will now allow more Newtonians and ex-Newtonians to access the local news anytime, anywhere.
