England : London The Death of a Sunday London Ride CANCELLED

[rb58]

Too late for the death of Ernest Bevin, John Burn and Ernest Newman. They're the ferries at the Woolwich Free Ferry and they will be decommissioned on 5 October. Note that the crossing will be boatless for 2 to 3 months while they make the piers fit the 2 new replacement ferries, Dame Vera Lynn and Ben Woolacott (ferry worker who drowned in 2011).

I hadn’t realised the new ferries were coming in so soon. My favourite river crossing.

I have finalised the details of the ride and plotted the route and now I just need to ride it as a route check.
To give you a taster of some of the locations we will visit, here are some clues. If you want to make some guesses on locations please PM me.(there will be a prize for the most correct answers)
More than one life safer
An execution with a nice bit of karma
A famous unsolved murder
Government cover ups and victim blaming
The accidental death of an impostor.

As I'm rubbish at cryptic clues I await the answers with bated breath....

One of my sons has expressed an interest. However I don't believe he has got up early enough on a Sunday morning since he was a baby!
