The Grange, Ellesmere

The Grange, locat­ed just out­side the small mar­ket town of Ellesmere in Shrop­shire, runs res­i­den­tial short cours­es in let­ter­press print­ing (and also in book­bind­ing and paper mar­bling). Tuition is held in our press and com­po­si­tion rooms which house our work­ing press­es — an 1864 Albion, a Van­der­cook proof­ing press, a Stephen­son Blake proof­ing press, four trea­dle platens of dif­fer­ent sizes (Arab, Clyde, Crop­per and Eagle) and five Adanas. Cours­es are held over a week­end and are run by expe­ri­enced print­ers and teach­ers. Accom­mo­da­tion is in the Grange itself — a beau­ti­ful Shrop­shire coun­try house.
