A middle-class shilling monthly magazine, unillustrated, Temple Bar: A London Magazine for Town and Country Readers (1860-1906) was modelled on the higher circulating Cornhill Magazine. Temple Bar was edited by George Augustus Sala until it incorporated Bentley's Miscellany in 1868, when George Bentley became editor. In 1898, Maurice Macmillan bought the title and Gertrude Townshend Mayer took over the editorship.
