On Thursday 14th November 1872, the life of Charlie Chirgwin was ended; he was an innocent who wasn’t stabbed, beaten or shot; but his last few hours alive were decided by rules, red-tape and petty revenge, and yet Charlie would never know that, as he was only fourteen weeks old.

  • Date: Monday 14th November 1872
  • Location: The Strand Union, W1 and St Giles' Workhouse, London, WC2
  • Victims: 1 (Charles Chirgwin)
  • Culprit: George Cannon
