Northumberland Archives collects material about the history of Northumberland, its communities and its people in its offices at Woodhorn and Berwick-upon-Tweed.
Our main aim is to ensure the preservation of archive documents, photographs and other media relating to the County of Northumberland and to make these available for consultation by the public.
People can visit our office at Woodhorn Wednesdays to Fridays and at Berwick on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Trained staff are on hand within the searchrooms to advise users. Catalogues and indexes are available to consult within the searchrooms and details of many of our collections are available to consult via our electronic catalogue.
Our Archive holdings are split between two offices – Woodhorn and the Berwick-upon-Tweed Record Office. The latter holds records relating to the geographical area held by Berwick-upon-Tweed Borough Council which extends from Berwick, south to Ellingham and across to the Cheviots. Records relating to the remainder of the present County of Northumberland are held at Woodhorn.
