The
Barracks
|
|
| For
centuries, the citizens of Berwick endured the billeting of soldiers in
their houses. At last, in 1719, England's first purpose-built infantry barracks
was completed in Berwick. Between 1882 and 1964, it was the depot of the
King's Own Scottish Borderers. Now a site in the care of English heritage, the Barracks houses a complex of museums and exhibitions, together with the Regimental Headquarters of the King's Own Scottish Borderers. |
