Middletown

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Middletown was an English village.

Lord Robert Urton and his wife, Lady Eloise Urton, lived there in the late 19th century. He owned and operated a tin mine, which by the time of the Eighth Doctor's arrival had been worked out.

Around the same time, a fire elemental emerged from the Earth's crust near the mine. When it decided the time was right to expand its control, it sent a wave of lava to engulf the town, turning it into a wasteland. The Doctor killed the creature by a huge flood released by the destruction of the Middletown dam. (PROSE: The Burning)
