Ipswich History Walk 2 │Executions and locations
In the second of my walking tours of Ipswich, I’ll not only look at more of the town’s heritage but the town’s execution sites. People were burnt at the stake during the 16th century and hanged in the old gaol. The last public hanging in the country of Suffolk took place in Ipswich back in 1862 when John Ducker was hanged for murder! You won’t believe just so much history there is in Ipswich.

Great videos. And I'm glad to hear you talking of all the amazing things about Ipswich. I knew the Regent as The Goumont .. saw Herbie Rides Again as a kid. The prison, my mum was convicted there .. several sad memories as a kid. Ipswich Council has ruined Ipswich and surrounding estates like Chantry.

Hanged not hung.
The Council doesn't own the building anymore.
They were hanged on the roof the remains of the hanging post is still up there.

6:30 - surely that should be "county gaol", not "county goal" - "gaol" is older English spelling of "jail"
