The Hanging of Mary Ball: Coventry’s Final Female Execution

Step back into 1849, when Mary Ball became the last woman hanged in Coventry. Crowds filled the streets, the gallows rose outside County Hall, and her fate was sealed.

On this immersive walk, you’ll follow her final steps, hear the story that led her to the scaffold, and stand in the very shadows where history was made. Told through roleplay and storytelling, this experience brings Mary’s tragic end chillingly to life.

Was she guilty? Or a victim of circumstance? The crowd may have judged her - but what will you decide?
