Marks on wall of pub supposedly made by bullets fired by Ruth Ellis - Daily Mail

Ruth Ellis (pictured right) was hanged for murder after shooting her cheating boyfriend, would-be racing driver David Blakely, outside the Magdala pub (shown left) in Hampstead in 1955. The pub attracted thousands of macabre sightseers from around the world and became a 'must see' for people on the Murder Mile tours. Now the story of the two bullet holes (shown inset, ringed) may have been revealed as a myth cooked up the pub landlady Mary Watson, whose brother drilled the holes in the wall. Ellis became notorious as the last woman to be hanged in Britain, aged 28, after she shot Blakely outside the pub on Easter Sunday in 1955. Neil Titley, who has researched the pub's history, says he was at a lock-in late one night when a plan to make the pub appealing to tourists was concocted.
