It is now called the Cornfields and it is a restaurant/hotel. It was built in C17 with some C20 extensions. It is not known if the building was always a pub but it was certainly by 1822 (Register of Alehouse Recognizances-see http://www.bedfordshire.gov.uk/CommunityAndLiving/ArchivesAndRecordOffice/CommunityArchives/Colmworth/CornfieldsHotelColmworth.aspx). The Wheatsheaf closed in 1995.
