Tyburn, the world famous convent near Marble Arch, was the site of "The King's Gallows" from 1196 to 1783, where they used to execute criminals. It's official address is 8 Hyde Park Place despite being in Bayswater Road. Sorry for the poor quality picture - this was taken from a very dirty window of a top deck of route 148.
