Situated in the heart of the Ironbridge Gorge in Shropshire, our Fine Art Gallery in Telford hosts regularly changing exhibitions from a wide range of local and international artists, many of them award winners.
The spacious gallery is located in Merrythought Village, a bustling cluster of antique shops and workshops, and of course the home to Merrythoughts, a famous British brand of Teddy Bears which started in the 1930’s and are still going strong.
The Art Gallery always has an eclectic mix of wall art, sculpture, furniture, jewellery and interesting objects you won’t find anywhere else. There are one off gifts from under twenty pounds up to 8ft tall horse sculptures and everything in-between. We welcome you to browse at your leisure.
