ニューゲート監獄
Although executions took place elsewhere (notably on Tower Hill, generally related to treason by gentlemen), the Roman Road junction at Tyburn became associated with the place of criminal execution after most were moved here from Smithfield in the 1400s. Prisoners were taken in public procession from Newgate Prison in the City, via St Giles in the Fields and Oxford Street (then known as Tyburn Road). From the late 18th century, when public executions were no longer carried out at Tyburn, they occurred at Newgate Prison itself and at Horsemonger Lane Gaol in Southwark.
