Bourn Hall Clinic, in the village of Bourn five miles west of Cambridge, was the world's first 'test-tube baby' clinic.

The clinic was founded in 1980, by Patrick Steptoe and Robert Edwards following the birth of the first test-tube baby in 1978. The clinic offered private medical treatment for couples with fertility problems, including in vitro fertilisation.
