A chilly street scene looking along Fishergate towards North Street with the horse and carriage making its way towards the Market Square. The photograph would have been taken midway through the road widening in the early 1900's when several premises were demolished. To the right the remaining building is The Grapes Inn, soon to be demolished, and to the top left the hanging sign, partially obscured by snow, is for Hemsworth antique shop which was frequented by royalty, including Queen Mary.
We use a high resolution 50 mega pixel Canon camera, mounted on a Guardian stand, which allows us to capture A0 plans comfortably without losing any clarity or definition. Plans larger than A0 are digitally stitched using Adobe Photoshop by experienced reprographic staff. Images are captured at a minimum resolution of 300dpi as TIFFS using Phase One capture software.
Paper copies at A4 and A3 size are printed on 120gsm high quality matt paper using good quality printing ink.
Paper copies larger than A3 (A2 up to A0) are printed on 170gsm high quality matt coated paper, using UV inks which do not fade or lose colour over time.
Photographs are printed on 250gsm satin and gloss paper.
