The Gloucester Advocate has been the local paper for Gloucester, New South Wales, since 1905. United Press secures named, approved features on gloucesteradvocate.com.au, live within 14 days of your approval or a 100% refund.
Please note: this is Gloucester in Australia, not Gloucester in England. The Gloucester Advocate serves a small country town in the MidCoast area of New South Wales. If you want coverage in Gloucestershire, UK, ask us about UK regional titles instead.
Two routes. You can send a genuine local story to the paper, such as a new business in town or a community project. Local papers welcome local news, but publication is not guaranteed.
Or you can book a guaranteed feature. The Gloucester Advocate is in our publication network: we agree the placement in writing before you pay, write the article with you, and once you approve it, it goes live on gloucesteradvocate.com.au within 14 days. If not, you get a full refund.
Facts from Gloucester Advocate history and ACM. Network details from our listing, October 2026, confirmed in writing before you book.
Frank Townshend published the first issue on 8 July 1905. The Rye family bought the paper a year later and ran it for 57 years before selling it in 1964. Its back issues have been digitised by the National Library of Australia.
In September 2024, Australian Community Media announced plans to close the print paper. The website gloucesteradvocate.com.au remains listed in our publication network, and we confirm it is live and publishing before you book.
Gloucester sits in a valley where the Gloucester, Avon and Barrington rivers join, below the Bucketts mountains. It is the gateway to Barrington Tops and a popular weekend escape for visitors from the Hunter.
