where was the last person hung in england
Capital punishment in the United Kingdom England and in the United Kingdom: on 13 August 1964, Peter Anthony Allen, at Walton Prison in Liverpool, and Gwynne Owen Evans, at Strangeways Prison in Manchester, were executed for the murder of John Alan West on 7 April that year.[21]
William Tyndale Eventually, Tyndale was betrayed by Henry Phillips[31] to the imperial authorities,[32] seized in Antwerp in 1535, and held in the castle of Vilvoorde (Filford) near Brussels.[33] He was tried on a charge of heresy in 1536 and was condemned to be burned to death, despite Thomas Cromwell's intercession on his behalf. Tyndale "was strangled to death while tied at the stake, and then his dead body was burned".[34] His final words, spoken "at the stake with a fervent zeal, and a loud voice", were reported as "Lord! Open the King of England's eyes."[35][36] The traditional date of commemoration is 6 October, but records of Tyndale's imprisonment suggest that the actual date of his execution might have been some weeks earlier.[37] Foxe gives 6 October as the date of commemoration (left-hand date column), but gives no date of death (right-hand date column).[33] Biographer David Daniell states the date of death only as "one of the first days of October 1536".[36]
