  We study the existence of a natural `linearisation' process for generalised
connections on an affine bundle. It is shown that this leads to an affine
generalised connection over a prolonged bundle, which is the analogue of what
is called a connection of Berwald type in the standard theory of connections.
Various new insights are being obtained in the fine structure of affine bundles
over an anchored vector bundle and affineness of generalised connections on
such bundles.
