A member of the Newlyn Copperworks and 'able lieutenant' to John Drew MacKENZIE at the Newlyn Industrial Class, as described by Stanhope FORBES in 'A Newlyn Retrospect'.
The four large copper plaques - earth, air, fire and water (designed by J D MacKENZIE and Thomas Cooper GOTCH) - that decorate the facade of the Newlyn art gallery were worked by P Hodder, considered to be Mackenzie's right hand man, in the early days of the Newlyn Industrial Class.
