Experience Berwick’s historic characters through our fascinating archives. See how Berwickers formed connections both in their own town and the world beyond from accounts of world travel, artistic expression, and even the supernatural!
In a time before internet and television, just how did the average person connect to the outside world? What interested and excited them, and how did they respond to the unknown? To answer these questions, we’ll display travel diaries from far and wide, beautifully illustrated family letters, cryptic shorthand, and in some of our more unusual records, we’ll show advice for Ghost Busting and sixteenth century accusations of witchcraft.
Do come along to our drop-in event, this is a real opportunity to see some of the curiosities that Berwick Archives has to offer, and who knows? This visit could start you on your own route to discovering connections in places you may not have thought to look.
