South Hams Newspapers

South Hams Newspapers is a long-standing group of local weekly publications serving the South Hams region in Devon, UK. Its portfolio includes titles such as the Kingsbridge & Salcombe Gazette, the Ivybridge & South Brent Gazette, and the Totnes Times. These publications have historically played a vital role in local journalism, providing community news, sports, and regional advertisements to residents.

Originally established as independent local titles, the brand is now part of a larger corporate structure. It was previously managed by Tindle Newspapers, a family-owned media company. However, as part of a strategic acquisition, it is currently under the ownership of Mediahuis through its UK subsidiary.

Manufacturing and production occur within the United Kingdom, specifically utilizing regional printing facilities to ensure timely distribution across South Devon. The ownership today reflects the broader consolidation of local media, where regional titles are integrated into international publishing networks while maintaining their local editorial focus.
