The Lichfield Post is among a number of newspapers to be axed by Trinity Mirror, according to reports.

It had earlier been revealed that Trinity Mirror had planned to close unnamed newspapers in the region.

But now a report on Journalism.co.uk claims that an internal memo has confirmed that the Lichfield Post is among seven newspapers to be cut from the company’s portfolio.

The Loughborough Trader Extra, Tamworth Times, Burton Trader, Ashby Trader & Echo, Coalville Echo and Walsall Observer are the other titles facing closure.

The move is expected to lead to more than 90 redundancies across the Midlands.

The Lichfield Post was previously based at an office on Bore Street, but after the closure of the premises, the newspaper was produced from other Trinity Mirror sites, inlcuding their office at Cannock.
