Stanley Spencer Gallery

2007

The Stanley Spencer Gallery was designed by Pringle Richards Sharratt Architects and inhabits the former Methodist chapel where Stanley Spencer used to worship as a child. The new gallery has been designed to provide more space for the artwork and to make it accessible to a wider audience.

The building was stripped back to reveal its original roof trusses and high arched windows to light the space; a 125mm depth mezzanine floor has been added with a new staircase and glass balustrade with stainless steel handrail. In order to open up the mezzanine space the existing tied rafters in the main roof were removed and a truss was incorporated into each plane of the roof.
