Berwick-upon-Tweed Barracks
Berwick upon Tweed
The Berwick Barracks, among the first to be purpose-built, were begun in 1717 based on a sketch by the distinguished court architect Nicolas Hawksmoor. Today, the Barracks hosts a number of attractions, including By Beat of Drum – an exhibition on the life of the British infantryman. While there, make sure you visit the Regimental Museum of the King’s Own Scottish Borderers, Contemporary Art Gallery (Apr-Aug) and Clock Block exhibition.
