Set into a charming linocut, this print features an original poem about a journey through Borrowdale, perfectly catching Castle Crag’s wooded heights, the teetering Bowder Stone, and Seathwaite’s famous rain. Anyone who has rambled past Grange and lost their heart to this wonderfully wet valley will love having this print on their wall.

Borrowdale

Past Grange the valley's walls close tight,
The Jaws of Borrowdale, they say,
And Castle Crag, wood-wrapped, in sight,
Stands like a guard across the way.

The Bowder Stone stands, huge and grey,
Tipped on a narrow edge, as though
A breath might tip it any day
And send it to the dale below.

And Seathwaite, where the most rain falls
Of any home in England, sits
Beneath its dripping fellside walls,
And doesn't mind a bit of it.

The print. A4 (21 x 29.7cm) or A3 (29.7 x 42cm). Framed in a solid wood moulding in black, white or natural wood, with shatterproof acrylic glazing and hanging fixtures fitted, or unframed on 200gsm fine-art paper, sent flat and ready for a frame of your own. Printed to order.

Sizes

A4 — 21 × 29.7 cm

A3 — 29.7 × 42 cm

Each size is the printed sheet itself. Framed, the 20 mm moulding sits outside it and there is no mount, so the whole sheet is on show. Unframed, it is sent flat, ready for a frame of your own.

Paper, frame and glazing

Printed on 200 gsm enhanced matte fine-art paper — no gloss and no glare, so the words read cleanly from across a room.

Framed in a 20 mm wide solid wood moulding in black, white or natural wood, glazed with shatterproof acrylic rather than glass, with a backing board and hanging fixtures already fitted.

Unframed prints are the same paper and the same print, sent flat.
