Handbags (The sad, the bad and the ugly. Non-productive stuff here.)

This curious surname is of combined Old Norse and Anglo-Saxon origin, and is a locational name from Latterbarrow in the Furness district of North Lancashire, on the west side of Windermere. The component elements of the name are the Old Norse "latr", lair of a wild animal, and the Olde English pre 7th Century "bearu", grove, wood; hence, "lair by the wood".
