| - Beecroft Art Gallery és una galeria de Southend-on-Sea, Essex, Anglaterra. Abans del 2014, la galeria es trobava en un edifici eduardià a Station Road a Westcliff-on-Sea, que va ser donat al poble de Southend-on-Sea el 1952 per Walter Beecroft per allotjar la seva eclèctica col·lecció d'obres d'art. Walter Beecroft era un advocat a Leigh. El 1928 ja havia creat un subcomitè de Galeria d'Art de la Comissió de Biblioteques i Museus Públics, i el 1947 va proposar dotar un edifici per convertir-se en una Galeria d'Art. Finalment, això va conduir a la Beecroft Art Gallery a Station Road. Beecroft també va dotar el Beecroft Bequest, un fons de compra d'art administrat per l'Associació de Museus. La galeria es va traslladar el 2014 a l'antiga casa de la Biblioteca Central a Victoria Avenue, South (ca)
