Shed 3, 1911
Shed 3 was built in 1911 to store salt for the herring boats of Merrow Quay. In the winter of 1953 a storm surge pushed the harbour into the town, and for a night the shed stood in seawater 148 centimetres deep.
When the water went down it left a line of white salt on the plaster. It never fully washed off. When the shed became a gallery in 2024 we kept the walls bare and the line visible — and we hang every work so that its centre sits on it, a little above the eye.
