Latimer’s of Langholm Est. 1882
Latimers of Langholm was first formed in 1882, when David Minto Latimer (originally a watch-maker from Waterbeck) opened a glass and china warehouse at the south end of the High Street.
We moved to our present location in the 1890’s, and the present building was reconstructed in 1926. In the years since, the building has seen a number of alterations and extensions, including the addition of a carpet and furniture warehouse in Caroline Street in the early 2000s.
Our stock history has included everything from Hornby trains, 78RPM records and mangles, to household goods, quality furniture, carpets and décor.
The original business expanded from ironmongery and china, gradually stocking an increasingly diverse range of homeware, and evolving into the store it is today. We strive to offer a wide selection of quality ranges to suit a large variety of tastes and styles.
Latimers of Langholm has evolved throughout the years, changing our stock and ranges to meet current demands, with many of our ranges available to buy from stock for immediate delivery. This has resulted in a large increase in the amount of stock available, including more than 100 rolls of carpet and vinyl flooring housed in our Caroline Street warehouse.
Our homeware and accessories departments have grown to encompass a wide selection of lamps, soft furnishings and mirrors. The kitchen and cookware department has expanded with a huge range from Stellar, Judge and Brabantia.
Within the ranges of beds on offer are the ‘bed tailor’ range by Harrison Spinks, a British manufacturer renowned for quality. The beds and mattresses they produce are available in a choice of tensions and sizes, offering superb comfort completely tailored to suit.
Much of our upholstery is produced by British manufacturers, and varies from budget models to superb coil-sprung craftsmanship.
Here at Latimers, we’ve seen it all – from world ward to global pandemics, we remain on Langholm’s High Street, proud to serve.
