Call to move Hocking's plaque

The grandson of Walk of Fame inductee Sidney Hocking says he will write to the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder to propose his grandfather's plaque be moved.

Founder of the Kalgoorlie Miner, Sidney Hocking was last week inducted into the Walk of Fame along with the inventor of the Warman Slurry Pump Dr Charles Warman.

A plaque to commemorate each inductee’s contribuiton is outside the WA Museum.

But John Hocking said he would contact the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder to suggest his grandfather’s plaque be relocated further down Hannan Street, to outside the Miner building.
