Beechwood (Irish: Coill na Feá) is a stop on the Luas light rail tram system in Dublin, Ireland which serves the southern parts of Ranelagh and Rathmines. It opened in 2004 as a stop on the Green Line, which re-uses the alignment of the Harcourt Street railway line which closed in 1958. Beechwood Luas stop is located on the same site as a station on the old line called Rathmines and Ranelagh, although it is lower than the original station.
