United Kingdom, London - Dr. John Snow cholera pump in Soho, Broadwick Street. The handle-less pump is a memorial of the 1854 cholera outbreak in Soho. A study conducted by physician Dr. John Snow uncovered that cholera is spread by contaminated water and not, as previously believed, by air. He ordered handles to be removed from public water pumps to prevent people from drinking the contaminated water. His discovery lead to improved public health and sanitisation facilities in the 19th century.
