Bringing Greyton’s past back to life!

Most Greytonians know there have been a few village newspapers over the years, but most will not realise quite how many there have been.

“From The Marketplace” ran from 1979-1983, “The Greyton Announcer” was from 1994-1999. Then in 2001 there was not one but two village papers “Greyton News” and “The Greyton Mail” and in 2002 there were 3 including “The Top Times” – Clearly golden years for the desktop publishing revolution.

Between 2003-2013 “The Greyton Sentinel” had a good run of 10 years, next up was “The Country News” until 2015, and “The Greyton Sentinel” returned between 2016 and 2018.

Thanks to the herculean efforts of Christoff Coetzee and his many helpers, we have an almost complete record of all past issues of all Greyton’s village newspapers! We will be digitising these and publishing them all right here, for the world to see!

2020 – the present day, we are back to “The Greyton Mail” with Rohan Millson as editor, who with Greyton Print Solutions has is kindly providing digital copies of each edition for online publishing.
