Let me see – I guess the 1920’s, women had the vote and the whole roller-coaster of emancipation begins it’s journey. Loftus Ladies Cricket Club enjoys the limelight – one of the first male-only bastions to fall! The Archive is also now aware that the image is from a photograph produced by H. W. Archer of Loftus produced in 1920.
Back row: Ron Slater (Loftus Market Place Chemist), Hilda Sowerby (School teacher later became Mrs Lines), Miss Bothroyd, ??, Miss Cooper, D. Copeman (Loftus Post Office).
Front row: ??, ??, ??, Zena Rowland, ??, ??.
Can anyone identify these ground-breaking women or their male coaches?
Thanks to Eric Johnson, Loftus Town Crier and Peter Maddison for updates on names.
