A WHITE MARBLE FIREPLACE 186 cm high, 131cm wide This carved and antique graffitied fireplace surround is inscribed with the names of medical students studying at UCD in the early 1900s. This chimney piece was most likely located in School of Medicine at 4 Cecilia Street, Dublin 2. Founded in 1855, the Catholic University Medical School (known as the Medical School of the Apothecaries’ Hall) was originally located on Cecilia Street. In 1908, it merged with the Royal University of Ireland and became known as the UCD Medical Faculty. The medical school relocated to Earlsfort Terrace in the 1930s. Notable names carved include Thomas Enright (Spring 1913). Dr. Enright trained in UCD and the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland before he served as a Captain with the Royal Army Medical Corps in World War I. He died in 1918 after the German forces attacked the Royal Munster Fusiliers of the 10th Irish Division in Serbia. Today he lies in the Salonika Military Cemetery.
