25 and 27, Church Street

A house and store dating back to the 14th century, with alterations and decoration in the 17th century and a restoration in the 19th. It was once part of the Sun Inn, which also included numbers 29 and 31 Church Street and 17 Market Hill. The building is timber-framed, with plastered and elaborately pargetted walls and a peg tile roof. It follows an "H" plan typical of hall houses, featuring jettied cross-wings.

The north-facing front was substantially reworked in the late 19th century, with new Tudor-style windows and doors. All windows are casements with intersecting cast-iron hexagonal latticed glazing bars. The roofs were re-raftered with side purlins and new barge-boards. The elaborate pargetting of the late 17th century includes bold figures such as volute scrolls, pecking birds, a stocking, and a pair of fighting men, purported to be the Wisbech Giant and Tom Hickathrift.

The east cross-wing and central hall each have a ground and first-floor window with three lights and cast-iron latticed panes, as does each cross-wing, which also has a boarded, battened, and studded door. The east cross-wing and hall have an upper floor raised in the 17th century to create a carriageway below; the carriageway has a two-leaved door that is framed and boarded with upper spikes.

The rear, south-facing elevation shows the hall and cross-wing units. There are two 19th-century stacks, one behind the hall range and another on the east side of the east cross-wing. Gable ends each have a single first-floor window. Windows on the west are double casements with four-by-two panes, while the east has a single casement with two-by-two panes. A 19th-century yellow brick lean-to with a slate roof extends from the ground floor of the hall and east cross-wing units. A segment-headed doorway leads to the carriageway, and a yard is located on the west side.

The interior is relatively plain, with little of the original medieval construction visible. In the roof space of the east cross-wing, a crown post features a splayed scarf joint on its collar purlin, and four-way braces that are lodged and nailed to the crown post, demonstrating a 14th-century construction technique.
