The Western Gazette is a regional newspaper, published every Thursday in Yeovil, Somerset, England. Before February 2009 there were eleven local sub-editions, but these were then rationalised into six: North Dorset, Sherborne, West Dorset, Crewkerne & Chard, Yeovil & District, and South Somerset. However, as of 2012 there are only 5 editions: Yeovil; Sherborne; Somerton & Langport; Wincanton, Castle Cary, Bruton & Gillingham and Crewkerne, Chard & Illminster. In 2012, Local World acquired owner Northcliffe Media from Daily Mail and General Trust.
The newspaper currently employs around 50 staff, now occupying a space in the Yeovil Innovation Centre, a space established to support new companies in their formative years, leaving their former landmark building in February 2011.
