  We discovered a middle-aged supernova remnant (SNR) in the vicinity of
G69.7+1.0 using the ASCA satellite. G69.7+1.0 was identified in the 2.7 GHz
survey and classified as a shell-type SNR with a diameter of 16 arcmin. During
the ROSAT all-sky survey, the X-ray emission was detected in the direction of
G69.7+1.0. However, it extends beyond the radio shell, and an X-ray bright
region was located outside of the radio shell. A spectral study with the ASCA
and ROSAT shows a thin thermal plasma with an electron temperature of ~0.4 keV.
There is no significant variation of the spectral parameters over the field of
view, except for the lower column density of the eastern part. We also found a
large shell structure which surrounds the X-ray bright region in both optical
and radio images. We suggest that the observed X-ray emission is associated
with the large optical and radio shell, and that they are part of a new SNR,
different from the radio SNR G69.7+1.0, which we have named AX J2001+3235 or
G69.4+1.2. The large shell and the electron temperature of ~0.4 keV indicate
that AX J2001+3235 is an evolved SNR. From a comparison with the column density
of CTB 80 (G69.0+2.7), we estimate that the distance of the SNR is about 2.5
kpc.
