Be very careful when thinking of visiting this ugly metal shed. I traveled some 150 miles from Norfolk to find that the exhibitions were changing and there was nothing to see. In addition Margate has some attractive buildings, although many are in an appalling state of disrepair, but the Turner Contemporary, surely misnamed as you will not see any Turner... More

well margates been waiting for this for years cost millions to build and what a let down looking around the town the money could and should have been spent on better things

I went to Margate especially for the Turner and the elements exhbition at the Turner contemporary and it was well worth it. It's a good gallery, with a clear orientation on education. Great cafe. Great location.
