The Wheatsheaf is a public house at 6 Stoney Street, Borough, Southwark, London, near Borough Market.[1]
History
It was rebuilt in 1840. The building was Grade II listed in 1998, it being noted that the interior was well preserved.[1]
The pub closed for four years beginning in 2009, during which the top storey was removed to make way for the Thameslink Programme viaduct.[2] A nearby pub inside the nearby Hop Exchange complex was named The Wheatsheaf while it was being rebuilt;[2] it later changed name to The Sheaf.[3][4][5]
The 2017 London Bridge attack took place in the surrounding area.[6][7]
