Britain's What's On Event Guide
Berwick Barracks
Heritage Open Day: Home to history and the arts, Berwick Barracks has something for all ages. It has two museums and an exhibition on the life of the British Infantryman (1600s to 1918). This year, also find out more about the exciting Living Barracks Project. Built in the early 18th century to the design of the distinguished architect Nicholas Hawksmoor, the Barracks was among the first in England to be purpose built. It was first quartered in 1721 and remained in active use until 1963 when it ceased to be the depot for the King's Own Scottish Borderers. The Barracks houses the Regimental Museum of the King's Own Scottish Borderers (closed at the moment) as well as Berwick Museum and Art Gallery.
