Berwick on Film on the Big Screen
The Maltings Cinema, Berwick Barracks, Parade, Berwick-upon-Tweed, Northumberland, TD15 1DF
Find out from Linda the stories and insight behind this footage preserved by Berwick archives for future generations. The Berwick Record Office holds a number of films taken in Berwick between 1911 and the 1970s. These include both professional and amatuer footage which capture life in the town. Four films will be shown including Fred Stott's cine which captured the late Queen's visit to the town in 1956.
The Living Barracks Project is a partnership between English Heritage, The Maltings (Berwick) Trust, Kings Own Scottish Borderers, Northumberland County Council and BBHT. It is breathing new life into Berwick’s historic Barracks, restoring their place at the heart of the town’s cultural and community life. Ahead of the site’s full reopening in 2028, an inspiring programme of art, heritage and community projects is already unfolding - created with and for the people of Berwick, thanks to the generous support of The National Lottery Heritage Fund and the UK Government’s Cultural Development Fund. Together, we’re rediscovering what the Barracks have been, will be and could become.
