Sallyport, Berwick upon Tweed
Sallyport links Bridge Street to the Quayside. The arch at the end of the lane (partly obscured by the metal fence around the building-works in progress at Dewar's Lane Granary) is the opening to a low, narrow tunnel under the Town Walls, which curves so that one cannot see from one end to the other: thus it is dark even at noon, and so provided cover for soldiers guarding the harbour from any attack from the Quayside. Steps to the left of the arch give access to the walkway around the Walls. The information board on the right is part of the Lowry trail round Berwick and Tweedmouth, showing the artist's interpretation of Sallyport.

All rails lead to Berwick Youth Hostel
Dewars Lane Granary was built in 1769. An 18-inch gauge railway linked the Granary through an opening in the Quay Wall direct to the Quayside. These tracks set in the surface of the courtyard appear to roughly follow the original alignments.
In recent years, this grade 2 listed building has been restored and converted to house Berwick Youth Hostel and an Art Gallery and was reopened in 2011.
