SUMMARY:TALK: Williasm Marwood: Cobbler\, Preacher\, Hangman
DESCRIPTION:From cobbler to state executioner: hear the extraordinary story of how a local man offered his services to the national justice system in Victorian Britain and Ireland.  Convinced that his “long drop” system of execution offered a far more humane method of executing prisoners convicted of capital offences\, William Marwood became famous across the country.  This account includes some background history about the development and eventual abolition of capital punishment. \nThis talk will link in to our William Marwood exhibition at the Sir Joseph Banks Centre\, which starts on June 25. \nPlease note that due to the subject matter\, the talk may not be suitable for all. \nPresented by Adam Cartwright. \nAdmission charge: members £2\, non members £5
