  • In person
  • Pre-booking required

Berwick Holy Trinity School can trace back its history for 300 years. Join Trudy Gray to visit some of the sites associated with the school both past and present. Also find out about some of its former teachers and pupils.

Berwick Holy Trinity School celebrates its 300th anniversary this year. It started life as a Charity School in 1724 and has had a fascinating history, changing site and amalgamating with a couple of schools over the years. This walk is based on research undertaken by volunteers from Berwick Record Office and Holy Trinity Church to help the present pupils learn more about their school in the past.
