Solo exhibition of paintings by John Allcock

• Running: Saturday 9th May – Friday 30th May 2026
• The Gallery Upstairs  

Compelled by bad weather to take a break from a climbing trip in northern Spain, John
Allcock came across a group of ancient hermitages in the hills above Potes. Fascinated by
the idea of the hermit’s withdrawal from the secular world, he gathered reference material
which became a series of paintings on his return to the UK. The result is this series of
fourteen images in mixed media.
