With a history dating back to 1885 over the years they have amassed the resources to own their own building. In it, there are two well equipped studios that you can hire out at reasonable rates, several darkrooms, computers and printers that, again, are available at reasonable cost. Two downsides for me: the location is a bit tucked away for me (I live east of town) and the membership cost is about £100 year. Good value if you use it - rather like health club membership, I suppose.

I do not know who or why it is there, what I do know is that each time I walk along North Cross Road there is a different window display/installation, from a manikin dressed in a patchwork ball gown, to a pile of screwed up paper to the most recent show of posters pasted onto the window. Until I find out the story behind Space Station 65 I will keep peering through the window with intrigue. I recommend rather than walking past in order to get to the shops quickly, that you pay this window display some attention.

From the owner: Space Station Sixty-Five (SS65) is an artist-run space based in South-East London. Co-directed by…read moreRachael House and Jo David, SS65 has been running since July 2002. At artist-led Space Station Sixty-Five, we continue to curate the contemporary art we love in accessible venues, unswayed by fashion, trends and the whims of government funding. We encourage local people to engage with the work of the artists, and artists to engage with the community. The gallery has a healthy local following as well as a wider contemporary art audience.

On first visit what will hit you is the clean lines and whiteness of it all. It is very similar in feel and mood to the White Cube on the other side of the Southbank. It's so clinical, white and spacious it perfectly marries a modern theme of art and the restaurant that Damien Hirst wanted to portray it would seem. It's actually two floors but a lot of rooms that are vast wit very high ceilings and lots of Space to see the art from back afar. It feels like the gallery of the future. Something you might see Kubrick do for one of his films, and for that it gets high praise from me. The exhibit wasn't amazing but the space did let the work sing as you walked through it and did that job well.

The fact that I keep forgetting probably adds to the magic of this area. While it's Eastbound continuation has become busy with bars and restaurants, Lower Marsh still retains its old-fashioned village feel - and long may it continue. Travelling Through may be new (opened about six months ago) but fits right in. It's a lovely independent bookshop upstairs with a cafe and art space downstairs - a hidden walled garden even allows you to catch some sunshine while reading your book and enjoying a cuppa. I visited for an evening event in support of a photographic exhibition dotted around the shop. For £2 entrance fee we were treated to an intimate presentation by the artist and a relaxed chat before and after. The red wine on offer (bargain at £3.50!) was very smooth, and I will definitely return to sample some of their cakes.
