Very interesting so much to take in about this very famous regiment.
Interesting for military enthusiasts or ex Kosb. I found myself in one of the photos!
K.O.S.B. Museum, Very Interesting and Educational This was a great find, we came to the barracks not really knowing what to expect but what we found was very interesting and very educational. I would urge anyone with the slightest interest in History and the Military to visit this gem. The collection chronologically traces the history of the regiment over 300 years to the present day. The history of The Kings Own Scottish Borderers is traced through displays of uniforms, headdresses, figures, paintings, badges, medals, weapons and relics from the various campaigns in which it has been involved. There is a wonderful display of regimental silverware including some really quirky pieces. The Colours Room where the last of the Regiments Flags are displayed is very atmospheric.There is a car park 50 metres from the Barracks. Facilities on site: Toilets (including disabled), a Museum sales point and light refreshments are available in the English Heritage shop. Due to the listed nature of the buildings, there is no wheelchair access to the upper floors of the Museum. This is one of three museums within the Barracks and the K.O.S.B. museum is the one keeps you there for the longest time as there is so much to take in and understand about this remarkable regiment. If you are in Berwick then this museum is a must see. I intend to return so that I can give more time to this remarkable collection. Until November 2018 there is an Aftermath Exhibition portraying the life soldiers returned to and the difficulties they faced finding work.
Good to catch up and see my regimental museum first time in 30 years
An interesting step back through military history in general and lots of local history too.
