General Information
The Roundhouse comprises a re-development site situated to the west of Spittal, approximately 1.3 miles south east of Berwick-upon-Tweed town centre.
Berwick-upon-Tweed is situated in Northumberland approximately equi-distance between Edinburgh to the north and Newcastle-upon-Tyne to the south (sixty-five miles each way). Whilst a relatively small town with a population of approximately 14,000 it is an important local centre serving a wide rural hinterland in North Northumberland and the eastern Scottish Borders with an approximate catchment area of around 42,000.
It is served by both the A1 trunk road and the main line East Coast Railway Network providing regular access to Edinburgh and Newcastle-upon-Tyne (approximately forty-five minutes each way) and London (approximately three and a half hours each way).
There are airports at both Edinburgh and Newcastle-upon-Tyne providing domestic and international scheduled flights.
Berwick-upon-Tweed benefits from an active commercial harbour. The port can currently take vessels up to 90 meters in length with maximum beam height of 16 meters and draughts of up to 4.5 meters.
Although a small town, Berwick offers a good range of retail and recreational facilities with a £20 million investment ongoing to renew The Swan Fitness and Wellness Centre a short distance west of this site. The population within a ten-mile radius was recorded as 27,323 in 2019 (Source: Costar). The town benefits from a significant tourism sector with the population reported to approximately double during peak summer season.
This site is situated on the boundary of Tweedmouth and Spittal, a predominantly residential area.
