The Daily Courant was the first regular daily newspaper to be published in the United Kingdom.

It was first published on 11 March 1702 by Edward Mallet from rooms above the White Hart pub in Fleet Street [1], which he described as being: "against the Ditch at Fleet Bridge". [2] The paper lasted until 1735.[3]
