On the Beat with PC John Carr - Crime in Victorian Tweedmouth
Tweedmouth War Memorial, Main Street, Tweedmouth, Berwick-upon-Tweed, Northumberland, TD15 2HD
Berwick ran its own police force until 1920, separate from the county of Norrthumberland. As part of his day-to-day work Carr kept a logbook of the occurrences he encountered and this is stored in the Berwick Record Office. From dealing with drunks, burglars, riots, assaults and general nuisances, Carr’s life as a policeman was a varied one. Based on these logbooks, this walk will re-trace his footsteps around Victorian Tweedmouth picking out some of his most interesting entries.
