We’re delighted that @HeritageFundUK have awarded us a £4.5m grant on behalf of the Berwick Barracks Partnership for the Living Barracks Project.
The grant will support conservation and refurbishment of the East Barracks Block, plus community outreach and collections care. 🙌
Unfortunately, our tills have been affected by the Microsoft IT outage. We are open as normal from 10am - 4pm, but we are only able to take cash payments.
Thank you for your understanding.
Window on Berwick takes you on a journey through the old town, where you will discover the sights and sounds of Berwick-upon-Tweed's past.
We are open 10am - 4pm Wednesday to Sunday. Admission is £5 adults, £4 concessions and under 18s and English Heritage members visit for FREE
