For all you Borders based folk (and beyond!)...
A free Archive Study Day is being organised by Berwick-upon-Tweed Record Office on Sat 9 Oct 10-4 at The Parish Centre, The Parade, Berwick. It will include using photographs, documents and newspapers for research. Deciphering old handwriting will also feature. There are limited places available and although the closing date is not until 30 Sept it’s advisable to book early as places will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.
There is no charge for this day which includes lunch as the event is being sponsored by The Co-operative Membership. It is one of a series of events for the year-long celebration of the 30th anniversary of Berwick Record Office.
