A Privately owned, Independent, Family Newspaper Established 1892
In the beginning... The Farnham Herald series of newspapers began life as the brainchild of E W Langham, who started a small printing office in premises off South Street in Farnham, in 1892. Its popularity and rapidly increasing sales and circulation inspired Mr Langham to open an office in West Street, Haslemere, and produce a Haslemere Herald in 1896. The two papers were so successful that, on 11th September 1897, Mr Langham decided to combine them and introduced the "Tudor" masthead, which still exists today. "The paper for small advertisements" became one of its slogans. Various titles and new areas were added. The advertising increased and the circulation grew. In the early 1900s Mr Langham brought the Heralds to 114 West Street, the site of the old Farnham Post Office. Mr Langham died in 1967 aged ninety-seven. Sir Ray Tindle CBE DL, the present chairman, subsequently purchased the Herald in 1969 and continued it as a family business, installing fully computerised production equipment. Family-owned and under Sir Ray’s control, the Herald went on to launch a further four titles - so that today, we have a series of much-loved and well-read publications based entirely on local people and local business: The Farnham Herald – The Haslemere Herald – The Alton Herald
