That's an interesting site, Ali.

Here is an item from it, the last executions in the UK -

13th of August 1964. Peter Anthony Allen (at Walton Prison Liverpool) and Gwynne Owen Evans - real name John Robson Walby, (at Strangeways Prison Manchester) become the last to be hanged. The executions taking place simultaneously at 8.00 a.m.

Sadly, Bristol the city I live in has a couple of connections, the last public hanging was of a 17 year old girl and took place about half a mile away from where I live, also one of the last 2 men hanged in England before the law was repealed died in Bristol as well according to another website!
