## Parking Outside Glynn Vivian Art Gallery on Alexandra Road

[Free parking](https://www.parksy.com/parking-near-me) is available directly outside Glynn Vivian Art Gallery, with three spaces positioned outside the main entrance for one hour (glynnvivian.co.uk). These spaces are the most convenient choice for a short visit and are particularly useful for visitors who need level access close to the doors.

The site is open Tuesday to Sunday from 10.00am to 4.30pm (Swansea Council). The gallery is at 32 Alexandra Road in Mount Pleasant, near St Thomas, so the outside spaces suit a brief daytime stop rather than longer parking. Swansea Council also identifies disabled parking at the gallery (Swansea Council), while Visit Wales lists parking areas for disabled visitors (Visit Wales).

## Alexandra Road Parking Pressure Around the Gallery

The three spaces outside the main entrance are restricted to one hour (glynnvivian.co.uk), making the surrounding street rules important when a visit will take longer. A driver staying beyond that period needs a separate car park rather than treating the gallery spaces as all-day parking.

Opening hours run from Tuesday to Sunday, 10.00am to 4.30pm (Swansea Council), so daytime visitor demand is concentrated across those days. The gallery's access information identifies the spaces as free parking directly outside the building (glynnvivian.co.uk), while the council records disabled parking at the venue (Swansea Council).

## High Street and Orchard Street Car Parks Near the Site

The gallery recommends High Street car parks, across the road from Swansea railway station, with Sat Nav postcode SA1 5BA and a walk of less than 5 minutes (glynnvivian.co.uk). This is the named nearby alternative for drivers who cannot use the short-stay spaces outside the entrance.

Orchard Street is also identified among the nearest car parks by the gallery (glynnvivian.co.uk). High Street and Orchard Street provide named alternatives away from the three one-hour spaces on Alexandra Road, while the gallery's direct outside parking remains free for the stated one-hour period (glynnvivian.co.uk).

## Parksy Spaces Around Mount Pleasant and Swansea

Parksy lists an accessible Blue Badge space at Swansea Station, 0.2 mi away, priced at £7.80 a day. A driveway space at Llwyn Brwydrau Surgery in Llansamlet is 0.2 mi away at £4.30 a day, while a space near Marriott Swansea offers 24/7 access at 0.2 mi and £3.50 a day.

Also 0.2 mi away, a space at Llwyneryr Hospital costs £4.30 an hour. A space near Nicholl Street Medical Centre is 0.3 mi away at £3.50 a day, and a space near The Greenhill Medical Centre is 0.3 mi away at £4.85 a day. These listings give drivers several pre-bookable alternatives to the short-stay parking directly outside the site.

## Swansea Railway Station Walk to the Gallery

Swansea railway station is the nearest station, at 321 yd from the gallery and a 4 min walk. Rail is therefore a practical way to reach the site without relying on Alexandra Road parking, particularly for visits during the gallery's Tuesday to Sunday opening schedule.

The gallery's recommended High Street car parks are across the road from Swansea railway station and less than 5 minute walk from the venue (glynnvivian.co.uk). This places the station area alongside the main named parking alternative, with the final walk continuing towards 32 Alexandra Road in Mount Pleasant.
