Daltons Weekly is a newspaper published in England. It is published every Thursday.
Established during the late 1860s by Herbert Dalton, Daltons Weekly was initially a single broadsheet listing 'Accommodation for Gentleman' in the then fashionable middle class suburbs around Vauxhall in South London. The paper proved very successful, but within two years of starting the paper, Dalton died, leaving it to his brother, who was a butcher and had no interest in publishing. The brother sold the paper to two brothers by the name of 'Hebert', for £100. For the next 102 years, Daltons Weekly remained a family business owned by the Heberts.
Over this period the paper grew and developed into the format still in use today. In June 1972, the paper was purchased by Morgan Grampian Ltd, who focused on the three main market areas of Holidays, Property and Businesses and closed down unrelated sectors. In 1987 Morgan-Grampian was acquired by United News and Media, currently known as United Business Media.
