About this listen
The bacteria that caused the bubonic plague was transported to the village in a box of material. Within a few weeks, the illness had taken hold.
In response the residents isolated to keep the disease from spreading to the surrounding villages.
Join Helen and curator Owen Roberts as they uncover the tale of the plague village and the extraordinary sacrifice its inhabitants made to save the lives of others.
