  Marmaduke Langdale
Langdale, with 3,000 cavalry, moved to attack the Parliamentary forces, but he was intercepted by General Poyntz, (Battle of Rowton Heath, 24 September 1645), with an equal force of cavalry.
Langdale was now in a very poor position, and an attempt to reach safety in Chester failed, leaving Charles helpless to help as his cavalry were cut down beneath the walls, eventually fleeing.
Of the Royalist commanders, only Langdale realised that the main Parliamentary army was close by, but could not convince his superiors of this, and on the first day of the battle of Preston (17-19 August 1648), he was left to face the entire enemy army unaided.

 langdale
On February 16, 1996, Langdale Owners Corp., the owner of a housing complex known as Langdale Gardens, New Hyde Park, New York, filed an application for permission to substitute individual parking garage spaces to approximately 90 rent-stabilized tenants with individual parking spaces in an open parking lot.
Petitioner now seeks a judgment vacating the decision and order of December 22, 1997, on the grounds that the DHCR failed to carefully review the allegations in the PAR, and, therefore, its determination was arbitrary and capricious, an abuse of discretion and a denial of due process.
It is asserted that the DHCR's order had a rational basis, as the owner neglected to repair the garage buildings, although it had the funds to do so, and that the demolition of the garages resulted in a reduction in services.
