Background

History

The Maltings' Eastern Lance venue was opened on 4 April 1990 by Peter Palumbo, then Chairman of Arts Council England, as a purpose-built arts centre built in the ruins of an early 19th-century Maltings (destroyed by fire in 1984) after a public campaign to establish a permanent professional arts centre in the town. The venue was designed by architects Law & Dunbar-Nasmith, and stands on a hillside in the centre of Berwick-upon-Tweed with views across the 17th century Berwick Bridge and the River Tweed estuary.
