It has been nearly 57 years since Peter Anthony Allen and Gwynne Owen Evans were hanged in prison for the murder of John Alan West. The last execution in Gloucestershire took place 25 years prior to the hanging of Allen and Evans, in 1939. The Murder Act was introduced in 1965, abolishing the death penalty for murder in England, Scotland and Wales but it survived in Northern Ireland until 1973.
