In High Places is a series of atmospheric watercolours exploring my fascination with the rocky outcrops that sit high up on the edge of the South Pennine moors.

The Dinner Stone is a table-like rock on Millstone Edge, overlooking Castleshaw Valley in Delph. It was a favourite place of the Saddleworth poet and historian Ammon Wrigley. He wrote a poem about it:  

Where the old rock stands weathered and lone
And black as night, turned into stone,
There's a green church I call my own,
Take my ashes and scatter them there,
Roughly or kindly, just as you care. 

This piece comes ready to hang in a charcoal grey painted wood frame.
