I'll go 15 rounds with you, you old bruiser by sourbugger
The 'summit complex' as it is called on the top of the Great Orme was originally built as a telegraph station. It meant that the important communication link between Holyhead and Liverpool was maintained. After a series of owners, including a golf club, an small hotel and a RAF radar station it ended up in the hand of the famous boxer Randolf Turpin.Although he only held a world title for a couple of months he be did famously knock out Sugar Ray Robinson. He had only been once before in over 130 professional fights.
He is also famous for being britain's First black boxing champion.
'Randy's bar', part of the summit complex, still contains a good deal of items and arefacts associated with the man. The outside porch is a stunning place to have a cool lager on a summer's day (possible about twice a season !)
