Brilliant customer service from the start with an easy website to navigate. Unfortunately when my order arrived the print was damaged, contacted Carol who sent another out for me straight away and kept me updated along the way. Absolutely fantastic service. Thank you. - Kim S, Pontefract
English Abbeys mounted foamex print - lightweight, contemporary and available up to 30in x 20in.
Whitby Abbey brings a strong sense of heritage and coastal character, making it well suited to feature walls in living rooms, hallways, or studies. It pairs naturally with neutral tones, stone textures, and classic interiors, offering a distinctive focal point with historical depth.
Whitby Abbey, perched dramatically on the windswept cliffs above the North Sea, is one of England's most atmospheric and historically significant monastic ruins.
Founded in 657 by the Anglo-Saxon princess St Hild as a double monastery for monks and nuns, it became a centre of early Christian learning and hosted the famous Synod of Whitby in 664, which decided the date of Easter for the English Church.
Destroyed by Viking raids, rebuilt in the Norman period, and finally dissolved in 1539 under Henry VIII, its striking Gothic remains inspired Bram Stoker's Dracula, with Count Dracula arriving in England as a black dog leaping from a shipwrecked vessel below these very cliffs.
Today, the skeletal silhouette of the great east window stands as an enduring symbol of faith, power, and Gothic romance against the wild Yorkshire coast.
This evocative image captures the ruins of Whitby Abbey bathed in the warm glow of sunset, its Gothic arches and spires silhouetted against a clear blue sky tinged with fading light.
The golden hues of the tall grass in the foreground echo the amber tones of the setting sun, creating a harmonious blend of nature and architecture.
The abbey's weathered stone stands as a solemn reminder of centuries past, while the tranquil atmosphere invites reflection.
It's a hauntingly beautiful scene that speaks to the enduring presence of history in the heart of Yorkshire's coastal landscape.

Brilliant! My print is beautiful. I initially ordered the wrong product due to my own error but Carol was so supportive and helpful I cannot recommend her/this company enough.
Thank you so very much the mugs are really lovely and you have kept me informed how my order was doing right up to the delivery, your service is 1st class and I will be doing business with you again.
Today I had the pleasure of picking up a framed and mounted print of 'Dandelion Clock' its absolutely stunning. The clarity is just crazy!! Now to decide where to put it!! Really beautiful work.
Absolutely wonderful photo! I bought it for my grandson but my daughter loved it so much that we decided it would be a waste to put it on his bedroom wall. The quality and detail demands a place where everyone can see it. I would definitely recommend this to family and friends. Thank you for the quick delivery too!
The attention to detail is above expectations. I'm thrilled with what Carol has done, I will be purchasing again. Thank you
The absolute perfect image, promptly dispatched, swiftly received. Highly delighted customer. Thank you very much indeed Carol.
