With the original poem set below a beautiful linocut illustration, this print captures how Lodore Falls transforms from a quiet thread into a bone-shaking roar after heavy Lakeland rain. It will look wonderful on the wall of any keen walker who loves the wild magic of a proper downpour.

Lodore Falls

A boy once asked his father how
The water came down at Lodore,
And Southey answered, then as now,
In rhyme on rhyme on rhyme, and more.

In dry weeks it is just a thread
That slides between the mossy stones;
But after rain, the whole cliff's head
Comes down in white, and shakes your bones.

So here's my answer, short and plain,
For anyone who hears it roar:
It comes down best in Lakeland rain.
That's how it comes down at Lodore.

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.
