Worthington News Building

This photograph shows the Worthington News Building around 1966. The first issue of the newspaper was printed March 12th, 1925, and at that time editor Leonard Insley ran the venture from his home at 671 Hartford St. A short time later, a building was erected at the rear of the property for the production of the paper. This image reflects a later expansion that allowed the office to move from the Insley residence to the building. The Worthington News was managed and edited by the Insley family until 1989. The building has again been reconfigured, with the original building still standing in the center. It is now known as 666 High Street and is home to Insley Printing, operated by grandson, Paul Insley.
