The hospital has its origins in the Cork Union Workhouse and Infirmary which was designed by George Wilkinson and completed in 1841.[1][2] A large three-storey block was added to the north of the site.[2] The facility became the Cork District Hospital in 1898 and later became the Cork County Home and Hospital.[3][4] It was designated by ministerial order as responsible for the treatment of medical, surgical and maternity cases, and cases of infectious and contagious diseases in 1923.[5]
