Dating to the Tudor times this building was formerly known as Vine house and housed the quarter sessions and the post office. It became a cottage hospital in 1877 and became the Rutson Hospital in 1905 after its benefactor Henry Rutson. It is still providing health care being part of the local Primary Care Trust and is the base for community treatment teams, outpatient clinics, offices and in-patient rehabilitation unit.
