Or the International Wrestling Institute and Museum!
http://www.wrestlingmuseum.org/
Or, Fulham Palace Museum, where there is an exhibition about the 1908
Olympics which took place in White City, Hammersmith. They may want to

Or, if he was from Newtongrange, did he have any connection with mining?
The Scottish Mining Museum is there.
