We have it noted as being part of the Mutcherhaven District, which is an old money district. The Brigmore Manor at least was abandoned after the discovery of whale oil as a fuel source that caused the bankruptcy of the Brigmore family. My guess is that the plague was brought to the area by the vagrants and gang members who used the manor as a base.
