Editorial director Nick Eyriey is an experienced and respected journalist having spent some 20 years in the local and national press working with newspapers such as The Yorkshire Post, Today, The Sun, and the Mail on Sunday.

The administrators have been called into Redruth-based printer Century Litho (Truro) Ltd, with the loss of 60 jobs.

Greg Palfrey and Steve Adshead, from Southampton-based Smith & Williamson, were appointed joint administrators yesterday, hours after a final interested party withdrew from acquisition talks.

Palfrey said: “Our appointment followed several days of intense negotiations to find a buyer for some or all of the businesses. While there was some interest all parties ultimately withdrew.

“We would welcome any further expressions of interest in the business and assets of Century Litho (Truro) Ltd.”
