Eyam (prononcé iim) est un village du Derbyshire en Angleterre, qui comptait 926 habitants en 2001. Il est connu pour avoir été le « village de la peste » (anglais: plague village) qui de lui même s'isola lorsque la peste noire le frappa en août 1665, plutôt que de laisser s'étendre l'épidémie[1],[2].
