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'. 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 similar to 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 similar to 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.
