Do you recognise yourself in the background upside down? Ray Tough tells us: “The gentleman on Norman’s left is Bill Herlingshaw and I think this photograph was taken at the opening of the Herlingshaw Centre in Eston.” Image courtesy of Loftus Town Council, with thanks to Ray Tough for the updated information.
Pictured with Norman Lantsbery, the Archive asks: “Can you recognise yourself in this photograph?” Image courtesy of Loftus Town Council.
Norman Lantsbery with Hilda Barwick in an official capacity, with on the right Bill Herlingshaw and his sister Ivy. Ray Tough and Ken Herlingshaw told us: “Norman with his Mayoress, Hilda Barwick and it looks like Bill Herlingshaw. I don’t know the two stood at the back.” Whilst Debbie Renwick told us: “I can confirm that the lady with Bill Herlingshaw (my grandfather)is Ivy his sister, she was the Mayoress when Bill was made Mayor as Doris had died at that time.”. But where, when and can anybody assist in identifying the two gentlemen in the background? Image courtesy of Loftus Town Council. Thanks to Ray Tough, Ken Herlingshaw and Debbie Renwick for the updates.
Here’s Norman again sharing a joke with Arthur Seed and his wife, Ray Tough told us: “I think it is Arthur Seed and his wife sharing a joke with Norman.” John Theobald added: ” The man on left is Bob Lewis of Guisborough. He was Langbaurgh Borough Council’s first Housing Chairman.” Image courtesy of Loftus Town Council and thanks to Ray Tough and John Theobald for the information.
Mr Alf Burnside with the chain of office, featured with previous Chairmen of Loftus Urban District Council, the date is possibly late 1974, but can anybody help?

We knew it was Norman with his sister Doris, although the location was unknown. Ray Tough tells: “This looks like the Durham Miners Gala. I know Norman loved to go to “The Big Meeting” and I believe he used to march in with one of the collieries and bands.” Image courtesy of Loftus Town Council and thanks to Ray Tough for the update.
Another photograph from the files of Loftus Town Council and a very young Norman Lantsbery; the images are part of a collection of which we don’t know anything about, but the Archive hopes someone out there will be able to give us some information. As Bill Kitching kindly tells us:”Norman Lantsberry is now no longer with us; he was Mayor of Langbaurgh and Chairman of Loftus Town Council, working at the United Bus garage in East Loftus. He was born in Carlin How and attended school there, living in Wood Street. He moved to Loftus after active service in the RAF in World War II and was very active in trade union affairs.” Julie Howard tells us: ”The name of the lady on the far right is Mrs Freda Worden, she worked for United Automobile Services and the name of the newspaper Norman Lantsberry is holding is the Manchester Guardian (a Labour Party favourite}” Image courtesy of Loftus Town Council, with thanks to Julie and Bill for the information.
Extra people in this photograph and we can see Norman is holding a newspaper with Manchester in the title, but asked for more information. Julie Howard tells us: ”The name of the lady on the far right is Mrs Freda Worden. The name of the gentleman on the far left is Mr Bernard Worden. The name of the newspaper Norman Lantsbery is holding is the Manchester Guardian (a Labour Party favourite), Mr and Mrs Worden worked for the United Automobile Services.” Image courtesy of Loftus Town Council and thanks to Julie Howard for that update.
