‘Gone With the Wind' star Ann Rutherford's ‘one-of-a-kind' Beverly Hills estate hits market for $42M

'Gone With the Wind' star Ann Rutherford's former 1930s Beverly Hills estate has hit the market for $42 million. The actress – who played Carreen O'Hara, one of the sisters of Scarlett O'Hara (Vivien Leigh) in the iconic 1939 movie – and her husband, television producer William Dozier, lived at the French Revival-style residence, known as Rutherford House, for decades, according to the Los Angeles Times. Dozier was known for creating the 1960s TV series 'Batman' and 'The Green Hornet,' while Rutherford also starred opposite Mickey Rooney in the 'Andy Hardy' film series during the 1930s and 1940s. During their tenure at the residence, Rutherford and Dozier frequently hosted celebrity weddings at the home, which they nicknamed Greenway Chapel, according to the LA Times. Built in 1938, the estate was designed by renowned architect Paul R. Williams, who created homes for a number of Hollywood legends, including Frank Sinatra, Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, and Barbara Stanwyck. 3 The actress lived at the French Revival-style residence, known as Rutherford House, for decades.

Multi-million pound hospital expansion approved

Multi-million pound plans to expand a hospital in Warwickshire and reduce waiting times have been given the go-ahead. The plans would see four new theatres, two 24-bed wards and 12 recovery bays built at the Hospital of St Cross, Rugby. University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire (UHCW) NHS Trust, which manages the site, has said Rugby Borough Council have now approved the plans. The trust said the facilities will see new services introduced at the hospital, such as keyhole abdominal surgery. Plans show that the new wards will also allow for the expansion of spinal surgery, inpatient gynaecology, hip and knee replacements and breast surgery. Professor Andy Hardy, Chief Executive Officer at UHCW, said: "The development of the Hospital of St Cross is a key priority for the Trust, as we set out in our Organisational Strategy in 2022." "Building a new inpatient ward and theatre facility is the first step in an ambitious longer-term vision for the site, ensuring the Hospital of St Cross plays a key role in improving the experiences of our patients and staff and driving down waiting times," he continued. The theatre and ward complex will be set over three storeys, with the ground floor containing the operating theatres, the first floor housing two wards, and the second floor including a plant to meet extensive mechanical and electrical requirements. A new staff car park is also planned, creating more spaces elsewhere for patients and visitors. Follow BBC Coventry & Warwickshire on BBC Sounds, Facebook, X and Instagram.
