The Victorian Turkish baths, Dublin, Lincoln Place, were the first purpose-built Victorian Turkish baths in the Irish capital, opening on 2 February 1860.
In 1867 the company leased the baths to Richard Bushe, a magistrate who lived on the premises. By 1881 he had sold them to the hoteliers Millar & Jury who already owned Turkish baths at 127 Stephen's Green West, adjacent to their hotel.
In June 1900 the baths were unsuccessfully offered at auction as a going concern. The building was then used for offices and other commercial activities before being demolished in 1970.
