The Vine was situated at 154 Stanmore Hill. This pub is now used as an Indian restaurant.

I am an Orthopedic and Hand Surgeon in Roma, Italy. In the years from 1990 to 1997 I attended the Peripheral Nerve Injury Unit of Professor Rolfe Birch, first in St.Mary's Hospital and then in Royal National Orthopedic Hospital in Stanmore. After long and extremely complex surgical theatre sessions, he wanted to talk about the case straight away in front of a beer in the Vine. Two pints, a piece of paper, a pencil and his great teaching. Rolfe recently passed away but all the good he made for his patients changed their lives and is still going around somewhere in the world with their personal histories. Same he did for us, then young doctors, giving his knowledge, example and attitude towards who is in need, as a real Mentor.
