There will be an unveiling of a plaque designed by Mike Baker at The Hatchet Inn on Frogmore Street. The plaque will commemorate the pub being the centre of the Bristol bare knuckle boxing scene at the turn of the 19th Century. Former World Super Middleweight Champion Glenn Catley will do the honours on Saturday 26th March at 11am.
Local artist Mike Baker has been responsible for making many commemorative plaques around Bristol including the BRHG plaque on The Seven Stars Pub.
