* Big Leader
* Border Counties Advertiser (Oswestry)
* Cambrian News (Aberaeron) [English available]
* Campaign Series (Blackwood & Caerphilly)
* Chester Evening Leader
* Chester Standard
* County Times (Welshpool, Newtown & Mid Wales)
* Cymru'r Byd
* Denbighshire Free Press (St Asaph, Denbigh & Ruthin)
* Ellesmere Port Standard
* Evening Leader (Mold, Deeside, Buckley, Hawarden, Connah's Quay & Holywell)
* Evening Post (Swansea)
* Flintshire Standard
* Free Press of Pontypool (Torfaen)
* Golwg

I don't know which one sells more than any other ... I'd GUESS the ones aimed at Cardiff would have the highest reader figures?

I believe the Western Daily Mail is very popular (no relation to its English namesake). There is no daily published in Welsh. One was going to be launched about three years ago, but the venture collapsed through lack of funding (and thereby probably through lack of interest). I only know this because I began to teach myself Welsh and was anxious to expand my reading.
