Locals report that public hangings used to take place on a triangular plot of land in front of the former gaol at this road junction, i.e. St Helen's Street with Orchard Street (ahead). Records show that the last public hanging was of a certain John Ducker on 14 April 1863 when his execution took place in the prison archway on St Helen's Street. The pub opposite is The County of Suffolk Hotel.
