Gallery 10

Gallery 10 sits just outside Norwich, a contemporary art space that punches above its weight for a Norfolk stop. The gallery focuses on modern and contemporary work, rotating exhibitions that tend towards the accessible rather than the forbidding - you won't find yourself standing in front of a blank canvas wondering if you're being had.

It's the sort of place that works best if you actually care about current art. Families with young kids might find an hour stretches thin unless there's something particularly engaging on. But for anyone who likes to spend a morning looking at what's being made now, rather than trudging round another stately home, it's worthwhile. The space itself is straightforward - nothing fancy, just good light and decent layout.

If you're based at one of the nearby parks - Deer's Mead is practically on your doorstep, Woodland Holiday Park just five minutes' drive - it makes sense as a rainy-day option or an afternoon break from the usual caravan routine. Norwich itself is close enough that you could combine it with a proper town day out. The city's got enough going on to justify a half-day visit anyway.

Opening hours and admission fees aren't publicly listed, so ring ahead or check locally. Don't assume it's free just because it's a smaller gallery. Worth knowing before you pile the family in the car, particularly if you're camping nearby and want to plan your day.
