Mary, Queen of Scots was executed by Axe at Fotheringay Castle ( no longer extant) in the year l587. There were three strokes allowed to the Headsman. the first blow may or may not have dispatched the Queen, the second stroke completely severed her head from her neck and in the fray her wig fell off as her head was lifted up. obviously dead, a third strike was deemed not necessary. contrast this with sanitized modern execution devices.
