Summary

Berwick Castle Founded by David I in the twelfth century, this once mighty fortress changed hands several times during the prolonged and often bloody fighting between Scotland and England in the medieval period.

  • Warfare, neglect and ultimately, the construction of the station and the railway bridge, reduced the castle to the ruin we see today.
  • The fragment of the castle seen in the picture is known as "the White Wall".
