The Lenton Listener was a neighbourhood magazine produced for Lenton Community Association. It first appeared in 1979 and fifty issues were published before its eventual demise in 1988. The magazine provided readers with not only news of what was going on at Lenton Community Centre but also articles of general interest to all those living in the Lenton area. Any significant developments on the local scene were reported alongside different features recalling Lenton's past.
