Underwood Under Threat – The Cholera Epidemic of 1832
Watch a play by local amateur thespians that focuses on the Underwood area of Plympton and how it was impacted by the 1832 cholera epidemic during which more than 55,000 people in the United Kingdom died.
Underwood is one of the three hamlets that make up the parish of Plympton St Mary. When cholera came to the area in 1832 villagers tried to keep it spreading but inevitably there were some casualties.
