[edit] There is no village called Colworth

There is a house and park called Colworth House which is on the western edge of the village of Sharnbrook in Bedfordshire, but there is no village with the name Colworth. --Chris Jefferies (talk) 21:51, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Google Maps produces a hit for a Colworth in West Sussex, but there's nothing for Bedfordshire.

Google's website search finds some items but they relate to Colworth House or one of its associated organisations (for example the golf course).

It's not possible to prove a negative, but I work at Colworth House in Sharnbrook and have never heard of the 'village'. I think the article was mistakenly created with perfectly good intentions. --Chris Jefferies (talk) 23:26, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
