Apart from the single Turner (depicting Margate) - and the Gormley sculpture in the sea in front of the gallery (low tide only), this gallery hosts a series of temporary exhibitions. The one we saw (Steve MacQueen - Resistance) was great.

You cycle here on a private road for a fee along Sandwich Bay and the beautiful golf course of The Royal St Georges Golf Club.
