Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of relations between the town community and the garrison based on the analysis of documents regulating the life of Berwick-upon-Tweed. Located almost on the very border, Berwick was of great strategic importance, so the town had a military garrison. Early Tudor royal enactments pay little attention to the relationship between the townspeople and the soldiers of the garrison. The legislators were mainly interested in this problem when it came to matters of importance to the defense of the town. In this case, it usually concerns the contacts of garrison officers with the leaders of the town community. Nevertheless, it can be concluded that there is a constant interaction between the townspeople and the soldiers and that there are conflicts between them.
