Well I'd question the accuracy of any visitor numbers.

True, there's always someone near the door, but sometimes they are busy with another visiting party, and I've never noticed them doing a head count.

Even if they have some sort of mechanical footfall counter, which I doubt, that doesn't give an accurate reading, as many times people sit outside and re-enter the gallery or cafe, more than once.

As stated, I've never once been asked where I'd travelled from.
