History edit

The newspaper was founded as the Burnley Express and East Lancashire Observer, by printer George Frankland, from Preston, as an eight-page penny weekly. It was politically Conservative. It merged with the Burnley Advertiser in 1880, becoming the Burnley Express and Advertiser, and in 1886, it became the Burnley Express and Clitheroe Division Advertiser.

It became the Express and News, after merging with the liberal Burnley News, in 1933.[3] Historical copies of the Burnley Express, dating back to 1877, are available to search and view in digitised form, at The British Newspaper Archive.[3]

Readership edit

According to JICREG in 2003,[4] the newspapers had approximately 50,000 readers for the editions on Friday, and 39,000 for the editions on Tuesday.[5]

Sister papers edit

Sister papers are the Nelson Leader, Colne Times and Barnoldswick and Earby Times, published Friday; The Clitheroe Advertiser and Times, published Thursday; and the Pendle Express, a variant of Tuesday's Burnley Express, published Tuesday. All these titles are owned by Johnston Press, Edinburgh.
