Watts Gallery is closed to the public for restoration

The Watts Gallery Information Point and Shop is open on the Estate during this time. Providing updates on the restoration project, access to the on-line collections database, architectural models and plans, a small display of Compton Pottery, a brief history of Watts Gallery and the Estate and a range of gifts, books and replica items for sale.

The Restoration will be completed by the end of this year and we hope to reopen to our visitors and supporters in the first half of 2011.

By Public Transport


Take the train to Guildford (leaving London from Waterloo). You can either get a taxi from the station which takes about ten minutes or there is a bus service. From the station walk toward the town centre, the bus station is signed. The number 46 bus goes through Compton and leaves at ten minutes past the hour from Stand 5. The bus stops right outside the gallery. You can return to Guildford by the same bus on its return journey, it stops outside the Gallery at about forty minutes past the hour. There are no buses on Sunday.

By Car


Compton is easily accessible by car as it is signed just off the A3 south of Guildford. Take the B3000 from the A3 signed to Godalming/Farnham (brown tourist signs to Loseley House) and then Compton. After the roundabout at the end of the slip road take the first left on the B3000, this is Down Lane. The Gallery is on the right a few hundred yards down the road.
