Fred killed at least two people before collaborating with Rose, while Rose murdered Fred’s stepdaughter when he was in prison for theft.
The majority of the murders occurred between May 1973 and August 1979 at 25 Cromwell Street.
The pair were finally caught and charged in 1994. Fred West committed suicide before going to trial, while Rose West was jailed for life the following year after having been found guilty on 10 counts of murder.
Their house at Cromwell Street was demolished in 1996 and the space converted into a landscaped footpath, connecting Cromwell Street to St. Michael’s Square.
