Other People's Photographs Radnor Street

Walking into Other People's Photographs on Radnor Street feels like stepping into someone's living room after they've spent years collecting prints they actually care about. It's a small gallery space in Folkestone that does exactly what the name suggests - shows work by photographers who aren't household names, but absolutely should be.

The place punches above its weight. You're looking at everything from documentary stuff to experimental prints, landscapes to portraiture, all selected with proper taste. No pretentious nonsense, just photographs that work. Most visitors spend 30-45 minutes having a proper look, though you could whip through in 15 if you're pushed.

It's the kind of spot that appeals to anyone with even a passing interest in photography, whether you're a serious enthusiast or just someone who appreciates a good image. It's also dead quiet, which is rather nice - you won't be shuffling around in crowds.

If you're based at Varne Ridge Holiday Park or Black Horse Farm just up the road, it's an easy jaunt into Folkestone on a drizzly afternoon. Pair it with the coastal walks and decent cafes in town and you've got yourself a proper cultural breather from the caravan routine. Check ahead for current exhibitions and opening times - the gallery isn't massive, so hours can be a bit variable. Free entry is likely, but worth confirming before the drive.
