We recently unveiled a new blue plaque to film star and Hollywood icon Cary Grant in Bristol. 🔵

Born Archie Leach, this year marks the 120th anniversary of his birth.

Our National Blue Plaques Programme has been kindly supported by Delancey and The Earls Court Development Company (@earlscourtdevco).

If you're visiting the national blue plaque soon in Bristol, an internationally recognised UNESCO City of Film, check out the Cary Comes Home Festival, running from today to 1 December, with a showing of 'North By Northwest' tonight. 📽️
