Horace Lampard Batten (17 June 1912 – 7 December 2014) was an English shoemaker and bootmaker, who supplied a wide variety of celebrities, royalty, service personnel and others over a career spanning many decades. == Family and early years ==
Horace Lampard Batten was born on 17 June 1912, the only child of Horace Batten.〔 Batten's family had made riding boots since the early 19th century, with British cavalry units being one of their major customers historically.〔 The elder Horace Batten moved to Northampton to set up a boot-making business there, and the younger Batten won a scholarship to Northampton School for Boys. He was captain of the Northampton Saints rugby club, and later was on the books for Northamptonshire in cricket as a professional, but made no first team appearances, having had to reduce his sporting commitments as the time demands of the boot-making business grew. At the age of 25 he took over the business from his father.
