Crome Gallery & Frame Makers

A proper working gallery where the frame makers actually know what they're talking about - which is rarer than you'd think. Crome Gallery isn't some corporate operation; it's a place where art and craft still mean something. You'll find original paintings, prints, and framed pieces, but the real draw is watching skilled craftspeople who understand why a frame matters as much as what goes in it.

The gallery works best for art enthusiasts and anyone serious about framing a piece worth keeping. If you're just browsing for a bit of colour for the sitting room, you might feel slightly out of your depth, but that's precisely why it's worth a visit. It's the kind of place that rewards curiosity and conversation.

Based near Norwich, it slots nicely into a wider Norfolk gallery crawl. If you're camping at Top Farm Campsite or any of the other parks dotted around the area - Deer's Mead, Moat Island, or Glen Farm - you're only a short drive away. The framing service is particularly useful if you've picked up something local during your stay and want it done properly before heading home.

Allow an hour if you're serious, thirty minutes if you're just passing through. It's free to browse, though commissions for custom framing will depend on what you're after. Go mid-week if you can; weekends draw the serious collectors, and it gets a bit tight in there.
