Featuring an original poem set into a beautiful linocut illustration, this print captures the white-knuckle, first-gear climb up Hardknott Pass and the old Roman fort guarding Eskdale. Any keen driver, fell walker, or history lover who has braved this wild, timeless route will absolutely love having it on their wall.

Hardknott Pass

The road climbs up in hairpin twists
At one in three, and turns, and climbs;
You grip the wheel with whitened fists
And count the bends a hundred times.

Below the top, the Romans made
A fort that looks down Eskdale's length;
Its walls, though low now, still have stayed,
Squared stone on stone, with all their strength.

Imagine sentries, far from home,
Who watched this pass through sleet and snow,
The farthest edges of old Rome,
And then drive on, in first, and slow.

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.
