The South Western Times is a weekly English language newspaper published for Bunbury and the South West region in Western Australia.
The newspaper was first published in 1888[1] and was originally titled the Southern Advertiser. The name was changed later the same year to the Southern Times and in 1917 it became the South Western Times.[2]
The newspaper also published an annual state pictorial feature with a goal of promoting the South-West, the South Western Times Illustrated Annual. The 1947 issue featured scenes of the Pemberton pool's carnival day, forestry and other industries.[3] The 1952 issue had prints of views in Collie and Denmark, content on cows, schools and fire controls.[4]
The distribution area includes many towns in the South West, including Bunbury, Boyanup, Capel, Donnybrook, Collie, Harvey, Balingup and Darkan. The paper is published every Thursday and in 2019 has a circulation of 6,300 and a readership of 19,000.[1]
