Sir Charles Fred(erick) Hutchinson (23 January 1850 – 15 November 1907) was an English physician and Liberal politician. He was the Member of Parliament (MP) for the Rye Division of Sussex from 1903 to 1906.
Charles Hutchinson was the son of Richard Scholes Hutchinson, a medical doctor from Nottingham and his wife Innes Hadden. In 1880 he married Ellen Soames of London. They had one son, St John Hutchinson who also became a Liberal politician, contesting his father’s old seat for the Liberals at both the January and December 1910 general elections.
Hutchinson was educated at Elstree School, Uppingham and the University of Edinburgh where he got his MD. He also studied in Berlin, Vienna and Paris.
Hutchinson went in for medicine, having passed his primary examinations in anatomy and physiology in 1871. He practised mainly in Scarborough during the year but spent his winters in Monte Carlo. He retired from practice about 1902.
After he retired, Hutchinson went to live in Mayfield in Sussex He contested the general election in the Liberal interest in the Rye or Eastern Division of Sussex. Rye could by this time be considered a safe Conservative seat. It had not returned a Liberal since the 1880 general election and its sitting MP, Arthur Montagu Brookfield had held the seat since 1885, having been returned unopposed at the previous general election in 1895.
