The Old Sun Public House

The Old Sun Public House is a building that started as a house and has now been converted into a public house. It dates from the late 17th century to early 18th century, with earlier origins from the 17th century. The exterior features a render over a timber frame and has a gabled roof covered with old plain tiles, although the rear has been fitted with concrete tiles from the 20th century. There are brick ridge stacks. The building has a three-unit lobby-entry plan and stands two storeys high with a four-window range. A canted tile hood covers the modern door, and there are segmental and flat arches above late 19th and early 20th century casements that have horizontal glazing bars. A rear outshut was added around 1974, which is connected to a mid-20th century flat-roofed extension. Inside, the room to the left features a 17th century chamfered beam and a wooden bressummer above an open fireplace, along with stop-chamfered beams. The roof is noted for having original side-purlin trusses. The building is shown on maps from 1722 to 1739 and has been used as an inn since 1785.
