Ireland 1849, Sidney Osborne | The gallows in Ireland were familiar and ever present features in front of every jailhouse

Ireland 1849, Sidney Osborne | The gallows in Ireland were familiar and ever present features in front of every jailhouse - no higher from the ground than an ordinary second-floor. Unlike England, they were in Ireland permanent fixtures - balconies with their fallen floors still hanging down from the last execution for all Irish Catholics to see and contemplate. About 10 feet above each trapdoor was a horizontal iron beam from the end of which hung a large iron cast of a skull.” The law did not distinguish between adults and children, and ‘strong evidence of malice in a child of 7 to 14 years of age’ was also a hanging matter.
