The Countryman magazine was founded in 1927 by J. W. Robertson Scott, who edited it from his office in Idbury in rural Oxfordshire for the first 21 years. He was succeeded as editor by John Cripps, son of Stafford Cripps. It is now edited by Lorraine Connolly, the first woman to hold this role in the history of the magazine, at offices in Skipton Castle, North Yorkshire. It was published quarterly until the 1990s, when it became a bimonthly. It is now a monthly, with a circulation of about 23,000. In the 1950s, it described itself as "A quarterly non-party review and miscellany of rural life and work for the English-speaking world". Today its website says: "The Countryman focuses on the rural issues of today and tomorrow, as well as including features on the people, places, history and wildlife that make the British countryside so special."
