The Crime Museum Uncovered

Had a really enjoyable evening here tonight.
Unfortunately no cameras allowed within the exhibition but items included the Gun Ruth Ellis (the last woman to be hanged in England) used to kill her partner, the gun Reggie Kray used to try and kill Jack 'The Hat' (the gun jammed so he stabbed him to death!), Burnt riot shields from the Broadwater Farm riots, Ropes used for public hangings, nails from the IRA Hyde Park Nail Bomb attack (I couldn't believe just how big they were), the letter (allegedly) from Jack The Ripper to Scotland Yard etc. etc.

Very interesting to see how London has dealt with crime over the centuries.
