TheSun Inn is aGrade II listed,parlour pub inLeintwardine,Herefordshire, England.[1][2]
It is on theCampaign for Real Ale'sNational Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors.[3]
The 200+ year old establishment,[4] one of the UK's last remaining parlour pubs,[2][4] had been owned and operated by resident[5] Flossie Lane, who was born in the Sun Inn in 1914,[6] and took over ownership more than 70 years ago, until her death in June 2009[2] aged 94.[4]
Without anyone to take her place, there had been fears that it would be sold for redevelopment,[2] but with the help ofCAMRA, and theSave the Sun Inn campaign,[4][7] the pub was purchased from Flossie's nieces, who were keen for it to remain a pub,[4] by a neighbour and friend of Flossie's and a local brewery owner.[2]
The new owners added a rear pavilion-style extension which has become the main bar venue. The original two front rooms remain, a red-brick public bar and the more comfortable parlour.
