After the Capital Punishment Amendment Act of 1868 the grisly spectacle of public hangings at Kirkdale gaol in North Liverpool was no more. The gaol though remained in existence until 1892, during which period 29 killers were hanged. All of these killings, which included stabbings, poisonings, shootings and kickings, as well as the subsequent executions are described here.
Between 1835 and 1867 31 people were hanged in public at Kirkdale gaol in Liverpool before crowds ranging from 500 to 100,000. This book details the circumstances behind the 31 murders and gives a brief account of what happened on each execution day. Although Kirkdale gaol was in Liverpool, it carried out judicial hangings for all convicted at the South Lancashire Assizes, which covered Liverpool, Manchester, Warrington, Preston and Blackburn.
