Richard Henrik Beamish (16 June 1862 – 23 February 1938) was an Irish politician and company director. He was an unsuccessful candidate at the 1922 general election but he was elected to Dáil Éireann as an Teachta Dála (TD) for the Cork Borough constituency at the 1923 general election.[1] He was elected under the label of Cork Progressive Association, a group associated with the Business and Professional Group. He did not contest the June 1927 general election.[2]

The Richard Beamish Cricket Grounds (more commonly known as The Mardyke) is named after him.
