Put it this way, do you see another R after the first one? Nope! Do you see a W after the first R? YES!
1 guess how you say it

i reckon it's properly Berwick but to most people that use it (i.e people that live there) probably say Berrick for speed and sheer laziness!

Ber-rick, as in Warwick (War-rick) - it ain't WAR-WICK-SHIRE is it?
English is such a stoopid language, Americans changed it for the better if you ask me.....
UK = Colour / US = Color - it ain't COL-OUR is it
UK = Catalogue / US = Catalog - it ain't CAT-A-LO-GUE is it
etc, etc.... Using Z's - specialized, colourized, instead of specialised, colourised (phonetically thats COL-OUR-I-SAID
)

Good point about WARWICK - As it's even though it's spelt WARWICK - It's said: WARRICK.
