mad about maps

Being mad about maps and the Norfolk Coast, it made perfect sense for Amanda to combine these two loves to create her own detailed and colourful illustrated map of the North Norfolk Coast, with Wells-next-the-Sea at the heart. Following some extensive research, her map includes not only the key landmarks along the coast, which are all hand drawn, but all the best pubs, so you know where to head for on those beautiful coastal walks!

The standard 'North Norfolk Coast' map print (2019) comes mounted to fit a frame 22"x 9". The central section of the map from Burnham Market to Blakeney is also available as an A5 card, mounted print (to fit frame 10"x 8") and 10"x 8" mounted print (to fit frame 12"x 10").

If you prefer older maps of the area, Amanda has sourced a detailed, vintage map (1945) thanks to the Great Britain Historical GIS Project and the University of Portsmouth (through their website 'Vision of Britain through Time'). With the addition of her characteristic bunting and nautical border, there are two versions available: 'Wells-next-the-Sea' mounted print 10"x 8" (to fit frame 12"x 10") and 'North Norfolk' mounted print 16"x 14" (to fit frame 20"x 16") encompassing Burnham Market to Blakeney.

From local maps to local fish... so taken by the Mackerel's beautiful bluey green iridescent markings (and by the delicious flavours when cooked fresh from the North Sea), Amanda chose to hand paint the fish with 'Wells-next-the-Sea' incorporated into their distinctive stripes. 'Local Mackerel' single fish prints come mounted to fit a frame 17"x 9"and are also available as DL cards and hanging signs (21cm x 10cm). Two 'Local Mackerel' on a distressed wood background come as A6 postcards and 10"x 8" mounted prints (to fit frame 12"x 10"). 'Local Crab' and 'Local Lobster' prints also available (see online shop for details).
