Although we can no longer buy daily national newspapers within the village, there are a number of alternatives.
For local newspapers, the new shop inside the Sycamore will stock the Derby Evening Telegraph and the Ashbourne News Telegraph (also the free paper the Peak Advertiser).
For newspaper deliveries, the MSR Newsgroup in Ashbourne offers a 7 day service. Phone 343943 to place your order, or call in at the shop at 25 Compton Street (next to the Sainsburys entrance, opposite the garage).
Other than that, the garage at Newhaven (just under 10 minutes’ drive from the centre of Parwich) stocks both the Daily Telegraph and the Daily Mirror.
It’s also worth pointing out that there is a local milk delivery service which covers Parwich. Call J F Gibson on 310250 to add your household to their rounds. The service is based at Bostern Grange Farm in Thorpe.


We have now signed up for newspaper deliveries, and the service is working well. The only downside is that the papers seem to be arriving at around 9am, which wouldn’t be so useful for commuters wanting to catch up with the news over breakfast…
