Queen Elizabeth I. did *NOT* (or at least not with lasting effect) ban the practice of public executions by hanging, drawing & quartering in 1586. Both the co-conspirators of Guy Fawkes and, half a century later, the leading regicides were executed in that manner; as well as the catholic archbishop of Armagh, Anglo-Norman nobleman *Oliver Plunkett* , during the "Popish plot" in the late 1670s.
