Epidose 5: Oliver Cromwell's head.


Listen Later

In Januray 1661 three bodies were hanging in chains on the gallows at Tyburn. All three were long since dead and buried but had been dug up for a posthumous execution in revenge for the killing of the king. If thats not strange enough, Oliver Cromwell's head then had another three hundred years of being passed about the place.
