The Old Sun was situated on Crete Hall Road.

The landlord in the 1950's was Mr Ernest Howarth who was my Uncle. His wife/partners name was Agnes and they had a son named Robin (my cousin), who was born c1945. I stayed there for week in 1958/9, and remember it as a "very lively" pub which was full of merchant seamen most evenings from the nearby docks. I don't know when Ernie left the pub or when it closed. Ernie died in Dec 1990 in Lambeth district
