The Newham Recorder is a local weekly newspaper distributed in the London Borough of Newham. It is published weekly, on a Wednesday, in the tabloid format by Archant, the UK's largest independently-owned regional media business.

The newspaper was founded in 1968, three years after the county boroughs of West Ham and East Ham - both of which had previously been part of Essex - were combined to form the new London Borough of Newham. Prior to that, since the early 1900s, the area had been served by the East Ham Recorder, a slip edition of the Ilford Recorder.

The newspaper has had only two editors in its lifetime so far - Tom Duncan (made a freeman of Newham in recognition of his work in the community) and, from 1997^{[citation needed]}, Colin Grainger who joined as a trainee reporter upon leaving a local school in 1972.^[2]

The Newham Recorder received praise from the police for its coverage of the rioting and criminal disorder of August 2011.^[3]
