Founded by Margaret and Peter Lewis, Flambard Press (1990–2012) was a North East-based independent press which published a range of poetry and fiction, as well as some non-fiction and visual-art books. It was particularly focused on publishing new and neglected writers in the North of England, as well as promoting live literature. The archive consists of editorial material relating to published works by Flambard Press as well as documents relating to the marketing of the company.
