The Photographers' Gallery is a centre for historical as well as contemporary photography from around the world. It is actually split across two galleries - No. 8 houses the main exhibition and an interesting little bookshop (with a small stock of novelty lomo cameras), and No. 5 has a small cafe with more photos on the walls. The exhibitions are wide and varied, from documentary photographers to fine artists. You can also buy prints at the store here.
