WELCOME TO NORTH HOUSE GALLERY

At North House Gallery there are frequent and varied exhibitions of paintings, drawings, sculpture, original prints and books by modern and contemporary artists of East Anglian, national and international fame.

North House Gallery was established in 1999 by Penelope Hughes-Stanton in the former studio of her father, the painter and wood-engraver Blair Hughes-Stanton. Exhibitions extend through the ground floor of the simple Georgian house overlooking the estuary of the River Stour at Manningtree in Essex, and into the letterpress workshop which houses several generations of printing presses, type cabinets and other, now historic, equipment.

The gallery is open on Saturdays but please feel free to ring for an appointment at any other time. If you would like to join the mailing list, please email via the contact page, where you will also find all other visitor information.
