Nice pub in Hampstead.
It was outside this pub that Ruth Ellis, the last woman to be executed in England, shot and killed her lover, David Blakely. Coincidentally, the second-last woman to be hanged in Britain, Styllou Christofi, lived a few metres from the Magdala at 11 South Hill Park, with her son and daughter-in-law. She was executed in December 1954, four months before Ellis committed her crime.
