Street Lane Framing

Street Lane Framing sits just outside Leeds and is the sort of place you'd walk past without a second glance - until you realise what's actually inside. This is a working framing gallery where you can watch craftspeople mount and frame artwork, photographs, and prints with proper skill. The shop itself stocks everything from contemporary prints to vintage maps, and the staff know their stuff without being precious about it.

It's the kind of spot that appeals most to people who actually care about how things are presented - artists, photographers, and anyone who's spent hours trying to frame something themselves and realised it's harder than it looks. You could easily spend an hour browsing, longer if you're chatting with the team about a specific project. There's no pretension here, just competent work and genuine interest in getting things right.

Both Moor Lodge Caravan Park and Haighfield Holiday Park sit within a few miles, making this a decent rainy-day option if you're based in the area for a longer stay. It's not a destination in itself - you won't travel two hours for it - but if you're in Leeds anyway or staying nearby, it's worth the detour. The real value is commissioning something properly framed rather than just browsing, so ring ahead if you've got a project in mind. Don't expect Instagram moments; expect good work done right.
