Young Ralph's Cross, Westerdale Moor, North Yorkshire.
Located on Danby High Moor between Hutton-le-Hole and Castleton, it was first described in deeds from the early 13th century. The present-day cross could date from the 18th century though some historians date it to around 1200. It seems likely that a much older cross once stood on this site - perhaps an Anglo-Saxon one that was actually made of wood. At that time it may have been referred to as 'The Roda Cross' (Rude Cross). More than likely it acted as a medieval highway marker because it stands at the junction of two moorland roads (to Rosedale and Westerdale).
Stone crosses have long marked places of worship, boundaries, or remembrance across the English countryside, many dating back to the medieval period or earlier. Often positioned on high ground or along historic routes, they served as focal points for travellers and local communities alike. Weathered by time and exposure, these crosses now stand as quiet markers of faith, tradition, and continuity within the landscape.
In this image, the cross stands alone against a wide, open sky, its textured stone surface clearly defined by natural light. The surrounding grassland and distant hills create a sense of space, while the simple, centred composition emphasises the form and presence of the structure. The clarity of the background and clean horizon reinforce the calm, exposed setting.
This framed poster offers a simple and contemporary way to display your chosen image. Professionally printed and presented within a lightweight wooden frame, it provides a clean, ready-to-hang option suitable for a wide range of interiors.
Your image is printed on 170gsm semi-gloss poster paper, producing clear detail and balanced colour with a subtle sheen. The semi-gloss surface enhances vibrancy while reducing excessive glare, allowing the artwork to remain visible in a variety of lighting conditions. All paper used is FSC-certified or equivalent, supporting responsibly sourced materials.
The poster is fitted within a solid pine wood frame with a slim, modern profile that complements both contemporary and classic styles. Frames are available in black, white, natural wood, or dark brown, with either a smooth or natural grain finish depending on the colour selected.
Each frame is fitted with shatter-resistant plexiglass, a lightweight alternative to traditional glass that offers clear viewing while helping to protect the artwork from everyday handling. The smooth surface is easy to clean and helps maintain the appearance of the print over time.
Supplied with a hanging kit and ready to hang on arrival, this young ralphs cross framed poster print provides a straightforward way to add framed artwork to your home or workspace.
