Description
(see definition):
A tributary glacier, 14 mi long, flowing SE between Marshall Mountains and Adams Mountains to enter Beardmore Glacier at Willey Point. Named by British Antarctic Expedition (BrAE) (1907-09) after His (Her) Majesty's Ship (HMS) Berwick, a vessel on which Lieutenant Jameson B. Adams of British Antarctic Expedition (BrAE) had served. The map of the British Antarctic Expedition (BrAE) (1910-13) and some subsequent maps transpose the positions of Berwick Glacier and Swinford Glacier. The latter lies 12 mi southwestward. The original application (British Antarctic Expedition (BrAE), 1907-09) of Berwick Glacier is the one recommended.
