getwestlondon's sister titles The Fulham Chronicle, Kensington & Chelsea Chronicle and Westminster Chronicle are to close this week.

Editor Adrian Seal said: "After 126 years, it is with great sadness that our final edition will roll off the presses for the last time today (Friday). Following a business review of the Fulham & Hammersmith Chronicle series, with its three editions, it is with regret that we can no longer sustain this title."

In their final editions the papers took the opportunity to thank its readers, advertisers and contributors who have supported the Chronicle series over the years that it has reported on local events.
