Edmund Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 I think it was here - corner of Russell Street and Bower street in 1890. By the 1950's there was a weighbridge and industrial buildings on the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syrup Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Pugilism. Bell's Life in London and Sporting Chronicle 16 December 1865. It seems possible that The Marquis of Waterford may have also been a Boxing Venue in its past. The Fight Mentioned lasting 66 Rounds in 1 Hour 45 Minutes.

miked Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 Intriguing although also horrible. Did J P Bean write something about fighting? I expect there would have been a big crowd. Thanks for efforts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
