Every corner of the UK and Ireland has its own way of saying things, and these prints put those words on the wall with a plain-English meaning beside each one. There are three styles: word maps that fill the shape of a county with its sayings, letterpress prints set in old print-shop type, and brew colour charts that rate a cup of tea in local dialect.
Popular picks: the Yorkshire sayings set of 3 prints with the matching Yorkshire sayings word map; the Geordie sayings set for Newcastle dialect; the Cockney rhyming slang letterpress print and Cockney rhyming slang poster; and the Scouse sayings set for Liverpool.

There are single prints for Leeds, Sheffield, Hull, Glasgow, Bristol, the Black Country, Cumbria and Derbyshire too.
Every word was checked against at least two independent dialect sources before it went on a print, and anything we could only find in one place was left off.
They make a thoughtful gift for someone who moved away from home, a housewarming present or a leaving present, and they sit well in a kitchen, hallway or living room. Printed in the UK on 180gsm lustre paper, from A5 to A2, or framed from A5 to A3. Browse more kitchen wall art.
