Ownership
| 1847 | Liberal philanthropist and barrister, George Brown established the newspaper, with printer Henry Atkinson, in Barnard Castle. He employed Henry King Spark as a compositor, and subsequently moved the newspaper to the better connected and larger market of Darlington.[4][5] |
|---|---|
| 1849 | George Brown moved back to Barnard Castle and sold his newspaper to property developers Robert and William Thompson.[4] |
| 1864 | The Thompsons' business failed and their newspaper was purchased by the now wealthy Henry King Spark. He used it in his bids to establish Darlington as a parliamentary borough, and be its first mayor and member of parliament. Darlington became a borough and Spark embarrassed the powerful, liberal Pease family but he was not elected to either position. In 1870, liberals, including the Pease family, established the Northern Echo to counter the Darlington & Stockton Times' influence in Darlington.[4][6][5] |
| 1878 | Spark was declared bankrupt and title passed to the rival, liberal faction led by Northern Echo publisher John Hyslop Bell, and the Pease family.[4] |
| Шаблон:Circa | Mirroring a split in the Liberal Party, the newspaper's directors disagreed over its position on home rule for Ireland. Those favouring home rule were bought out by the unionist Arthur Pease's faction. The Darlington & Stockton Times supported Pease's 1895 campaign to become Tory aligned Liberal Unionist MP for Darlington. Pease ousted the Northern Echo supported Liberal Theodore Fry from the seat.[4][7] |
| 1914 | Arnold Rowntree and Charles Starmer controlled, liberal aligned and Northern Echo owning, North of England Newspaper Company Ltd purchased the Darlington & Stockton Times. The newspaper retained its unionist voice.[8][7][4][9] |
| 1921 | North of England Newspapapers Company Ltd purchased by Charles Starmer and Pearson's, King and Hutchings Ltd. King and Hutchings Ltd subsequently renamed Westminster Press Ltd.[10][11][7] |
| 1937 | Pearson take complete control of Westminster Press Ltd.[12][7][13] |
| 1969 | Pearson plc floated on the London Stock Exchange.[13] |
| 1995 | Westminster Press Ltd sold by Pearson plc to Newsquest Media Group Ltd.[14] |
| 1999 | Newsquest Media Group Ltd purchased by Gannett Company Inc.[15] |
| 2019 | GateHouse Media purchased Gannett Company Inc, and subsequently took the name of its acquisition.[16] |
