The ''Northants Herald & Post'' is a local weekly newspaper distributed free of charge in Northampton, England, and the surrounding towns and villages. The distribution also includes the town of Towcester following the closure of local paid-for newspapers. ==History== The newspaper was founded in 1975 by a company managed by businessman and journalist Tony Boullemier who worked for the Daily Express where he was chief sub-editor. Boullemier was born in Newcastle and originally trained on news and sport with the Newcastle Journal 〔(''Midlands boss Boullemier explores French ancestry in first novel'' Press Gazette 17 May 2007, accessed 18 June 2012 )〕 Boullemier and his partners, his wife Marie, Ben Clingain, Richard Pinkham and for the early years, Richard Meredith, expanded the operation into a group of 16 papers and magazines circulating nearly 400,000 copies a week throughout the east Midlands, before selling the titles to Thomson Regional Newspapers.〔(''Whatever happened to Thomson Newspapers?'' Press Gazette, 7 July 2006, accessed 18 June 2012 )〕 The group was later sold to Trinity Mirror. However, in 2008 Trinity Mirror carried out a shakeup of its UK Midlands operations seeking job cuts and integration.〔( ''Trinity Mirror seeks job cuts and integration in Midlands shakeup'' 19 August 2008, accessed 18 June 2012 )〕 Trinity decided it would either close the title or sell it.〔(''Northampton Herald & Post titles under threat'' Northampton Chronicle & Echo, 20 August 2008, accessed 18 June 2008 )〕 Eventually it was acquired by LSN Media Ltd in 2008 (LSN standing for '' Local Sunday Newspapers''). LSN Media publish 13 newspapers across three counties, most of them in Northamptonshire and Bedfordshire. Iliffe News & Media Ltd are the owners of LSN which was acquired in August 2005.〔(''British Newspapers Online'' 23 March 2012, accessed 18 June 2012 )〕 Iliffe News & Media are in turn part of the family-owned Yattendon Group, which publishes three daily and nearly 30 weekly paid-for and freesheet newspapers across eastern and central England, notably the Cambridge News, the Burton Mail and the Hertfordshire Mercury series. The company dates back to 1840 and was originally a ribbonmakers.〔(''British Newspapers on-line - Illiffe News & Media'' 18 May 2012, accessed 19 June 2012 )〕 The paper's offices were originally in Derngate, Northampton, until 2012, when they were relocated to Lakeside, an office park off the Bedford Road on the eastern outskirts of the town. In January 2013 The Northampton Herald and Post became part of Localworld and in January 2014 changed its name to The Northants Herald and Post.
