the 'county' series
i have launched this website with a map of the cotswolds along with county maps of gloucestershire & oxfordshire. worcestershire, somerset & warwickshire and
cornwall are now available, with more to follow
there are also a series of smaller district maps available from different counties
these vintage style maps are digitally rendered designs, inspired by historical & antique map prints from the 19th and early 20th centuries
all present day civil parish, district and county borders, place names, rivers, major walking routes, complete road & rail networks are displayed. the shaded relief of the hills meandering across the english landscape; coloured interior shading for the counties or districts together with the vignetted shading of the peripheral border and choice of font throughout are all inspired by examples of european antique cartographic styles
all the maps come with a researched "sites of significant historical & cultural interest" plotted on the map with corresponding reference section (sites researched and sourced from The National Trust, Historic England, English Heritage and Britain Express)
for discounts on imperfect prints
map sizes
the county maps are available in 2 sizes
70 cm x 100 cm (framed - 76.5 cm x 106.5 cm). original design size.
A1 - 59.4 cm x 84.1 cm (framed - 65.9 cm x 90.6 cm). the content becomes slightly more congested as shrunk, in particular text labels. everything has been readjusted but the occasional label had to be removed.
district maps are typically A2 in size (42 cm x 59.4 cm)
"maps you get lost in examining close up, while they also pack a punch from across the room"
"looks amazing anywhere in the house"
the 'london' series
i have developed a different style of map focusing on the boroughs of london. to launch the london series the boroughs of hammersmith & fulham, wandsworth and the city of westminster are now available to purchase. kensington & chelsea is almost complete and many more will follow
the aim is to complete all 32 london boroughs and develop a large scale map of greater london. please stay in contact if you want to know more about this
the distinct design of the london series does share some common ideas from the county series but has evolved to suit the size of the area in question and the density of detail associated with an urban area
the london series maps are available in a variety of colours: orange, blue, pink, green & yellow
map sizes
the london series is a smaller size of map
fulham & hammersmith is an A2 size portrait print (42 cm x 59.4 cm )
city of westminster is slightly larger poster size landscape print (70 cm x 50 cm)

A combination of high quality printing, paper & framing ensures the highest standards with a map that will last a lifetime
printing
fine art (giclee) printing using the latest 12-ink Canon inkjet printing technology
paper
230 gsm matte archival (acid free) paper with a reflection free surface
dry mounting (for framed prints)
the print is bonded to a board using an adhesive heat activated tissue, giving a smooth finish. this is standard on my larger prints as it's deemed essential to prevent potential undulations in the paper behind the glass or perspex. it's optional for A2 size prints
canvas
matte white 100% textured polyester canvas. a matte laminate is added to protect the artwork. The canvas is stretched around a separate box frame before mounting in the display frame
oak frames
there are countless frames for you to choose from out there. my option is a simple light oak, which I believe complements the maps perfectly. wood sourced from sustainable sources operating replanting schemes
