Farnham Herald

The FARNHAM HERALD newspaper series was created by E.W. Langham, who opened a small printing shop on South Street in Farnham back in 1892. Due to its growing popularity and rising sales, Mr. Langham expanded his efforts by establishing an office on West Street in Haslemere, leading to the launch of the Haslemere Herald in 1896.
