In the 19th century, people in England primarily obtained water from wells, rivers, and streams, with many rural households relying on these natural sources. In urban areas, particularly as cities expanded, public water supplies were developed; water companies were established to provide piped water to homes and streets. However, access to clean water was inconsistent, and many residents faced challenges due to pollution and inadequate infrastructure. The introduction of modern sanitation systems and clean drinking water initiatives began to address these issues later in the century.
