The Sun Inn

The Sun Inn is a building located on Dragon Street, dating from the early 19th century. It features a two-storey front with three windows, which is stuccoed and topped with a low-pitched, hipped slate roof. To the south, there is an early 18th-century brick wing with a high-pitched tiled roof and two gabled dormers, although the windows have been irregularly renewed in the early 19th century. To the north, there is an older section that dates from the late 16th or early 17th century, characterized by gabled ends under high-pitched tiled roofs and walls made of painted brick. Inside this part, heavy timbers are exposed. A large chimney made of narrow bricks rises at the junction where the roofs of this older section meet the new front roof. The street-facing side has recessed sash windows with glazing bars on the first floor and canted bays with three similar windows each on the ground floor, all arranged in an irregular pattern. The off-centre door consists of four fielded panels and two flat panels, topped with a later bracketed hood. The Sun Inn is part of a group with Nos 14 to 28 (even), the Gazebo, and garden walls to the north and east of Dragon House.
