Lovely to see mention of James Robert Plumbe.
Ronnie Plumbe was a local primary school headmaster,
churchwarden and Freemason in Kendal who had a big physical
presence but was a very affable person who did a lot for local
grassroots football. He was a league linesman and Lancashire
Combination referee from 1954 to 1958, the highlight of his
rather short career being linesman at the Amateur Cup Final at
Wembley in 1958.
