Is it possible for me using a combination of rsync and ssh, on my computer, to copy files from a remote server which does have ssh access but doesn't have rsync or is it necessary to have rsync on both ends?

If there's sftp access, you could use an sshfs mount and rsync that, but it will be less efficient than if rsync is available at both ends.

Hope that helps,
