Barracks from the ramparts
Berwick Barracks were begun in 1717 and were among the first in England to be purpose-built. They were designed by architect Nicholas Hawksmoor who was an assistant to Sir Christopher Wren. He also worked for Sir John Vanbrugh on the construction of Castle Howard and on Blenheim Palace.
