Berwick Lifeboat Station was first established in Spittal in 1835. Since then, it has swapped from one side of the River Tweed to the other . It remained on the Spittal side until 1901 when it transferred over to the Berwick side of the river. It was subsequently moved back to Spittal again to its present site at Carr Rock.
