This dates back to at least the 18th century and was one of the town's main coaching inns. The inn was given a Georgian-style front in c1820. Scotland's national poet, Robert Burns, is said to have frequented The Wheatsheaf. Burns knew Kilmarnock well. The very first edition of his poems was printed here in 1786. He is commemorated by a grandiose monument in Kay Park.
