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}”
