| 释义 |
Simpson's Hospital, founded in 1779, is located in Dundrum, Dublin, Ireland. HistoryThe hospital was founded under the terms of the will of George Simpson, a merchant who lived at 24 Jervis St, Dublin. He suffered from blindness and gout. He devised his estate for the purpose of founding an asylum for blind and gouty men in reduced circumstances. Inmates of the hospital were to be lodged, fed and clothed.[1] On his death in 1775 his trustees bought Putland House for £3,600, but it was found inconvenient as a hospital. In 1784 the inmates were removed to Judge Robinson's house in Jervis St (on the site of part of Jervis Street Hospital), before the hospital moved to its present location.
