England has so much history. I love my country but would love to go to England to see all these amazing sites. Rock on England.

Hanging was sometimes called 'climbing the three legged mare'

My favourite pub in York is called the Three Legged Mare and the even had a gallows in the beer garden

conceals great human suffering in almost perfectly clueless spatial environment.

With all of the history that had been preserved, can you imagine how much as been lost to time and construction

[ColinH]

Always a bonus when you get the legs out, Alice. Very interesting indeed.

I’ve been there a few times over the years. Commands of you across the Knavesmire where there are still racing taking place to this day. Down the road, there was a pen for lost sheep to be gathered as it was public grazing land as well.

Nice to see that the local council has kept it all in top notch condition!! No plack explanation?

In Halifax West Yorkshire they still have a gibbet that cuts people head's off, the story is if you get away to Boothtown across a beak you can be free, not allowed back into Halifax

[darrelld.paveyjr.]

Fascinating and captivating TKY Alice.

[tinamariewebb]

Near where I live there’s a place called Combe Gibbet that was built in 1676 and of course was used for hanging.

[henrymichaelwilson]

You are a nice looking lady to be telling us about these historic subjects.

[danielserene]

I wonder what that place is like in the dead of night.
