To mark the 200th anniversary of The Westmorland Gazette in 2018, we are publishing a photograph from our archives on our website every day this year.

Today's photograph shows Labour supporters gathering at Kendal Town Hall to greet John Dayton (right of centre) after his adoption as Labour candidate in 1966.

You can see all of the archive photographs uploaded so far by going to http://www.thewestmorlandgazette.co.uk/news/gazette_200th_anniversary/
