They have a great selection of mats, frames and different framing options so you can go for something classic or more contemporary.

They are always really helpful and friendly if you have any problems or would like something tinkered with.

So this framers on Preston Road is something of a rare breed now and it was with joy that I found it near my flat when I wanted to get a photo really nicely framed as a gift. It's a small shop but has a large selection of frame styles i n solid wood, wood veneer, metal, as well as more unusual frame materials in a variety of colours- great if you want to match a specific colour in a room. I took my photo in with me and they gave me great advice- trying out a series of different frame and board options up against the image and offering help to keep it all within my budget. They were able to have the framed photo ready within two days for a good price.

The Shop is spacey and uncluttered and hanging on the walls are paintings with their frames on, to give the customer a good idea of how the frame looks, with certain colours and styles of painting. I don't know much about Art, but recently my dad asked me to choose a frame for a piece of art he bought and during the browsing process, I realised just how important a good quality, matching frame makes to a painting. So in this shop, I actually was quite interested and absorbed by browsing their large collections of modern style Nielsen frames, and imagining what pieces of art would go well with the beautifully named 'Forbidden fruit' frame.There are also classical and ornate frames to go with the more traditional paintings. If you are an artist by trade, or you have a piece of art, that you believe deserves to be properly framed, come here and have a chat with the knowledgeable owners, and take it from there.

There was some fantastic prints and canvases in the window and on the shop floor. From Steve McQueen on the famous 'Great Escape' bike to some lovely ambient seaside paintings, you could really spend a lot of money here and have a house looking like a gallery.

I had to email them to ask where the print was once it had been released. Then it of course arrived 2 days later so they clearly forgot my order which led to my having been sent number 42 of 50. Not one of the first as I was told when I pre ordered. They opened to the public and sold for a week before sending mine. Despite telling me I would have a very low number. It also has a mark on it which is not part of the design. This was a gift for my wife not just something to collect. They completely ignored my request and lied. Not sure how more incompetent they can be. I will never use this sham gallery again. You have ruined what was a 40th birthday present with your utter laziness and incompetence.

Don't expect to see a range of original works for sale, they offer only prints of classic and more unusual designs. The biggest selling point is that vast range of designs on offer. If you want to splash out a little more they will frame your chosen print in a modern, minimalist frame and you have the choice of upgrading further to have the image printed onto a canvas for a more up market finish. Of course adding these extras will crank up the price, but with the large selection of designs, you will be able to bespoke a room whilst retaining an overall theme without difficulty. They also offer corporate services for boardrooms and suchlike. The staff are pretty helpful and will always try and find you a good selection of prints to choose from if you give them an idea of the kind of style/subject you are looking for. I would have liked to have seen some space dedicated to local artists, but I guess they are focusing on a specific business plan.
