The pump in Broad Street is indicated on the map, as well as all the surrounding pumps to which the public had access at the time of the outbreak of Cholera. The water of the pump in Marlborough Street, at the end of Carnaby Street, was so impure that many persons avoided using it; and I found that the persons who died near this pump, in the beginning of September, had water from the Broad Street pump.

  • Alist of Background Papers
    Retrofitting Soho - Final Report Background paper 1 - History and Character of Soho October 2008 Background paper 1 The History and Character of Soho Originally grazing farmland, in the 1530s the area of what is now Soho was taken by Henry VIII as a royal park. The name Soho first appears in the 17th century and is believed to derive from the old ‘soho!’ hunting call. It developed south of what is now Oxford Street, following the path of an ancient Roman road from Hampshire to Colchester and later turnpike linking London to Oxford.1 Soho covers two historic parishes – St Annes, east of Wardour Street and St James to the west. The St Annes section formed a single estate, the northern part of which was given in the 1660s by King Charles to the Earl of St Albans. After 1734, the freehold passed to the Earl of Portland. Meanwhile the southern part was sold by the Crown in parcels in the 16th and 17th century, with part going to the Earl of Leicester. This part of Soho was laid out according to a regular street pattern, with Soho Square as its main public space. The St James section was partly sold off by the Crown to landowners in 1560. The area was already divided up into a complicated pattern of leasehold and freehold properties based on the original field boundaries (see Figure BP 1.1). As a consequence, development was more piecemeal than in St Annes, with more pockets of regular developments based on the estates around Golden Square, Great Pulteney Street and Great Marlborough Street (Soho Conservation Area Audit, pp.8- 9).
