THE FARNHAM HERALD series of newspapers began life as the brainchild of E.W. Langham, who started a small printing office premises off South Street, in Farnham, in 1892. In the early 1900s Mr. Langham brought the Heralds to 114 West Street, the site of the old Farnham Post Office. Printing church magazines, auctioneer's posters, programmes, visiting cards, tickets, etc. as well as the Heralds, meant more machinery was required.
More space to house it at the back of 114 West Street was provided by the large factory premises occupied until the end of 1989. The circulation and popularity of the Heralds continued to rise and by 1934 the papers were using pictures. The pagination grew from four to eight and, on occasion, to 10 broadsheet.
