Beaumont Street

Beaumont Street

Beaumont Street is a street in the centre of Oxford, England. The street was laid out in the 1820s with elegant terraced houses in the Regency style. Before that, it was the location of Beaumont Palace, now noted by a plaque near the junction with Walton Street.

At the western end is Worcester College and the junction with Walton Street to the north and Worcester Street to the south. Half way along to the north is St John Street. To the south is the Oxford Playhouse, where many University productions are held. To the north at the eastern end is the Ashmolean Museum. Opposite the eastern end is the Martyrs' Memorial. Here, Beaumont Street adjoins St Giles' to the north and Magdalen Street to the south. Oxford's foremost hotel, the Randolph, is on the corner with Magdalen Street.

The street is a favoured location for dentists and doctors.
