Metropolis Water Supply Urged For Sanitary Reform
In February Lord Morpeth will push sanitary reform in Parliament amid rising mortality and looming cholera. The piece argues water quality is as critical as sewerage and ventilation, condemning Thames sources and urging waterworks to shift to pure springs, artesian wells, and upper Thames supplies. It highlights London water contamination, past sewer pollution, and calls for legal limits on Thames intake, plus a push for new sources and competition among water companies. The Dundee incident notes a fatal house fire linked to a intoxicated husband.
