‘Way to The Gallows – Mediaeval Justice in Essex’ and The Essex Gallows Project

The Essex Gallows Project is a significant initiative that explores the history and archaeology of medieval justice in Essex. It aims to uncover the gallows sites that served as execution points for various manors and parishes, often located on administrative boundaries and major highways. The project is a testament to the historical significance of these sites, which are now largely lost to posterity but have left a lasting impact on the county's landscape and history.
