Description

At the Benn Hospital on Clifton Street in Belfast, a special dinner is served for older people.

The Benn Hospital was founded in 1871. It was situated on the corner of Glenravel and Clifton Streets and originally constructed as an eye, ear and throat hospital. It was named after its benefactors, George and Edward Benn and was one of three hospitals built by the brothers.

The brothers first had a brewing business but then moved into iron smelting.
