New Memorial at Proctor's Ledge

The Gallows Hill Project, a group of seven area scholars, announced in 2016 that it had finally identified the location of Gallows Hill after five years of research using court records, maps, ground-penetrating radar and aerial photographs. It was determined that the actual site was a place called Proctor's Ledge in Salem. A new memorial was constructed there in 2017, with separate stone markers for each of the nineteen hanging victims.
