Nineteenth Century
1 Children so poor they went barefoot in the streets
2 Houses so vile the poo from next door would soak through the walls
3 The churchyards were so full that the bones were sticking out the ground...
4 Fifty families could share ONE tap
5 A good day out in Norwich? Going to a public hanging at the castle
6 ...or how about getting blind drunk in one of 650 pubs and beer shops
7 The terrible treadmill punishment for Norwich's prisoners
8 Outbreaks of tuberculosis, cholera and smallpox. A Fine City... for dying in.
9 The Thorpe train disaster in 1874 killed more than 20 and injured sixty more
10 Want to get rid of your poo? Chuck it out the window!
