This 17th century pub was frequented by Lord Terrington in the late 18th century and was in its day Biggleswade's premier coaching inn with 24 bedrooms. The inn maintained 44 horses, 6 post-chaise and 2 carriages. One of the three original horse-mounting blocks can still be seen in front of the property. The Sun Inn closed in 1836 the licence transferred to The Rising Sun opposite. It reopened as The Sun Hotel in 1945 and is now in residential use.
