Photographs of Shap

We have had many compliments about the photographs on the website and now plan to create online photograph albums so that visitors and residents can see what a beautiful place Shap is.

If you would like to submit a series of pictures please contact us and we will make arrangements to load your pictures on the site.

The albums will take a while to download and may be too large if you have a dial up ISP.

Each album will open in a new window, to return to the Shap website please close the open window.

To view the images as a slide show please click on the first picture in the album and use the text buttons to navigate the album.
