During exhibitions we are open Friday - Sunday 10-5pm. Please check our exhibition programme before visiting the gallery.
A spacious & intimate art gallery which has a programme of exhibitions throughout the year, bringing you an ever changing celebration of the visual arts.
We are purveyors of fine and contemporary art, sculpture and ceramics for your home. We take great pride and care in sourcing and exhibiting some of the best artists within the UK. Our interest is centred around quality art work: which is full of meaning, symbols and humanity. We also have an additional ground floor space called ‘The Bothy’ which showcases our artisan & handmade crafts. We endeavour to promote the sustainable ethos of ‘Buy better, buy less’: both within the gallery and The Bothy.
Situated on the edge of The Peak District National Park, Derbyshire, in the historic village of Cromford Derbyshire the very birthplace of the Industrial Revolution and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The gallery can be found on the second floor of a beautiful 18th century cottage which became the village jail in the 1780’s, the cells are still in situ on the ground floor of the building. One of the first cottages to be built in Cromford - originally it would have been surrounded by fields.
The Old Lock Up Gallery - curated and managed by Rachael Pinks - opened in July 2017, prior to this the space was Rachael’s art studio from 2011.
