British Newspaper Archive recent additions

The following have been added to the British Newspaper Archive (www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk) over the last 30 days - good to see some more Irish material at long last finding its way to the site (I've highlighted each Irish title with an asterisk), though still only a drop in the ocean compared to the offerings for England and Scotland. (NB: there is very little Welsh material on the site - for this, visit the free to access http://welshnewspapers.llgc.org.uk/en/home).
