Sun on the BBC
The Sun Inn is to appear once again on national television on BBC 1 in the programme "Country Tracks".
Although, filmed in the Sun’s famous Red Brick Bar in March this year, it is hoped that it will also feature unique footage of much loved and sadly missed former landlady Flossie Lane. Pub regular Wayne Smith captured Floss on film during the Annual Beer Festival in August 2007 and kindly donated a copy to the BBC to use in the show.Country Tracks will be shown on Sunday 10th October at 11am.

After what seems like many months of meetings and consultation it was a great surprise and huge relief when Planning permission and listed building consent was granted on 24th May 2010.
The last of the Parlour Pubs
The Campaign for Real Ale lists the Sun Inn as one of "Britain's true heritage pubs" and "possibly the most unspoilt pub in the country".
The Sun Inn is now owned by Gary Seymour and Nick Davis who plan to keep it running as a wonderful example of "living history".
Although repair and restoration works will need to be carried out, Nick and Gary have promised to preserve the front rooms intact. They appreciate that maintaining the unique character of the pub is essential and plan to enhance, rather than change, the pub to make it an integral part of the village.
