Alnwick - Rocky Coastal Cliffs - Travel Print
Layered sandstone cliffs stretch along the Northumberland coast near Alnwick, their weathered strata catching soft daylight beneath a pale blue sky scattered with cloud. In the foreground, lichen-mottled boulders and rock pools meet the incoming tide, waves breaking white against the shoreline below.
A grounding piece for coastal walkers, geology enthusiasts, or anyone drawn to the wild edges of northern England.

Destination write-up
Here’s the write-up that features on your print.
Northumberland's market town of Alnwick rises above the River Aln, its sandstone streets shaped by centuries of border history. Here the past feels close at hand, held within castle walls and cobbled lanes that have watched merchants, soldiers and scholars pass for generations.
At its centre stands Alnwick Castle, ancestral seat of the Percy family, its battlements and towers still commanding the skyline. Wander through the Alnwick Garden nearby, where the Grand Cascade tumbles between manicured terraces and the Poison Garden holds its darker secrets behind locked gates. Step into Barter Books, housed in the old Victorian railway station, where shelves of secondhand volumes fill rooms warmed by a fire.
Beyond the town, Northumberland unfolds in wide skies and quiet coastline, from Dunstanburgh to the sands near Bamburgh. Alnwick keeps its own rhythm, marked each June by the Alnwick Fair, when jesters and stallholders return the streets to medieval bustle.
Print size & quality
Every piece is printed on thick, 175gsm fine-art matte paper with archival inks — so the colours stay rich, deep and true for years, with no fading and no fuss. Before it heads your way, it's wrapped in soft tissue to keep it scratch-free and sent out in a sturdy kraft tube or a robust triangular kraft box (never plastic).
Available sizes
Framing options
Fancy it ready to hang? Add a solid pine frame — sturdy, handsome and built to last. Take your pick from black, natural wood, or white. Each one is 20–25mm deep and 10–14mm wide: the sweet spot between strength and understated good looks.
We finish every frame with shatterproof, crystal-clear plexiglass to keep your print pristine — and it arrives already framed, so it goes straight from the box to your wall with no faff.
Framing is available for these sizes: A4, A3, A2, A1, 8x10, 11x14, 12x16, 12x18, 16x20, 18x24, 20x28, 24x32, 24x36 and 28x40.
