Not what you think, while executions were held at the Tower of London, Mary Queen of Scots was executed in the now defunct Fotheringay ( sometimes spelled Fotheringhay) Castle in Scotland. There were, of course political executions in the Tower of London, but this was not one of them. I believe Anne Boleyn ( mother of Elizabeth I) was executed by Axe in the Tower ( actually a prison complex) . There was a rather morbid Cockney folk song about this. now we do not have a similar Ballad about Jayne Mansfield, but that was an accident.
