Custodial history (Describes where and how the record has been held from creation to transfer to The National Archives)
-
The Berwick Quarter Sessions records have been listed as two separate collections - the older material is part of the Berwick Borough Archives and is still being listed. The later material came in as a separate collection which has the Accession number BRO. 925. The lists have been handwritten and contain the sections A to Z. The numbers in brackets after the entries indicate the number of items in each bundle. The list is very rough but at least gives some indication of what material is held here.
