History

Beaumont Hospital was planned and commissioned from 1978 to 1984 and represented an investment of £50 million. Its design is a direct replica of Cork University College Hospital.

It opened on November 29 1987 following the closure of two smaller and older Dublin hospitals: The Charitable Infirmary, Jervis Street and St. Lawrence, also remembered as The Richmond. [cite web|url=http://www.beaumont.ie/about/|title=About us|accessdate=2007-05-17]
