The Heartbeat series is on TV here again this year. Now for the next quiz. Small town in northern England. In the 1800's there was a lot of rain one year and a lot of people became ill and died.People suspected that water ran through the graveyard and then contaminated the water supply.There were numerous epidemics of dysentery, cholera, typhus and smallpox possibly because sewage also contaminated the water used in many homes.
