Full description

Whether you're from Manchester, Liverpool or the bits in between, coming from the North West is something to be proud of, and this mirror celebrates that heritage. The frame is made bespoke from reclaimed pine so as to fit a good portion of the Bartholomew map. These maps, now sadly no more, are far more colourful and decorative than their OS equivalents, and this very rare example predates when the map of this area became Sheet 28, as this one covers the Ribble Estuary as well. It is broadly titled Merseyside which is, I suppose, strictly true as the Mersey begins in Stockport. Sincere apologies to the citizens of Warrington and Wigan for placing the mirror over your patch, but the missing towns are glued to the back. This mirror makes for a wonderful talking point as there is so much more green and undeveloped land than nowadays, particularly with this one nearly a hundred years old.

H 415mm x W 540mm x D 23mm.

(None of my frames have fixings for hanging for ease of storage but they will be added before shipping.)

Designed by Neil Sinclair
