Bray Round Wooden 3d Map – Handcrafted Irish Seaside Wall Art

Bray · Bré · Co. Wicklow, Ireland

A meaningful handmade gift for anyone with a connection to this beloved seaside town on the doorstep of Dublin and the Wicklow Mountains.

Celebrate the charm of Bray with this beautifully handcrafted round wooden map. Nestled between the Irish Sea and the foothills of the Wicklow Mountains, Bray has been one of Ireland's favourite seaside destinations since the Victorian era. Its long promenade, pebble beach and the iconic bulk of Bray Head rising at the southern end of the seafront give the town a distinctive character that is instantly recognisable to anyone who has spent time here. The cliff walk to Greystones — one of the finest coastal walks on the east coast — begins at the foot of Bray Head and offers views back over the town and out across the Irish Sea that stay with you long after you leave.

This handcrafted 3D wooden map captures Bray's coastline, headland, surrounding hills and Wicklow landscape in layered detail — made by hand in our Sligo studio from sustainable materials.

Perfect for:

• Walkers who love the famous cliff walk between Bray and Greystones along the Irish Sea
• Swimmers and seaside lovers with fond memories of the promenade, the beach and the amusements
• Commuters and Dubliners with a deep affection for this vibrant town on the DART line
• Anyone with a connection to Bray, whether you grew up there, moved away, or simply love this corner of Wicklow

Make it personal:

Add a brass pin to mark a favourite spot — the promenade, Bray Head, a family home, a favourite swim or a special place along the seafront — with a short engraved message on the back.

Our Local Spots maps are round, framed wooden 3D maps, designed to capture meaningful Irish places in a simple, tactile format.

Each map measures approximately 220mm across and 42mm deep. It is ready to hang and also comes with a small clip-together stand, so it can be displayed on a wall, shelf, desk or sideboard.

Each map is framed without glass, allowing the depth, texture and natural wood grain to remain visible. Available with a natural or black frame.

Depths and elevations are shown in metres where included in the design.

You can add a short engraved message to the back of your map and a brass pin to mark a special place on the front for an additional charge.

To add this option, select “Map with engraving + brass pin” before adding the map to your cart, then enter your message and the Eircode or location details in the box provided.

If the place does not have an Eircode, you can describe the location instead.

Each Local Spots map is designed and made by Outcrop in our County Sligo studio.

We use geographic data to create the layered map design, then laser cut, stain, hand-sand, finish, frame and check each piece in our workshop before it is packed for delivery.

Made in small batches, each map carries the natural warmth of wood and the care of something made by hand.

Each Local Spots map is made from FSC-certified bamboo plywood, chosen for its strength, fine grain and natural warmth.

Our round frames are made from FSC-certified birch, sourced from sustainably managed Finnish forests. We use water-based, non-toxic glues and stains to finish each piece by hand.

Your map is wrapped in protective tissue and presented in an unbleached, recycled cardboard box. Our packaging is plastic-free, and each piece is designed to be kept, gifted and enjoyed for years.

Your map comes ready to hang, and also includes a small clip-together wooden stand for displaying it on a shelf, desk or sideboard.

To use the stand, pop out the two pieces, slot them together and rest your map securely on top.

For best results, display indoors and avoid prolonged direct sunlight,
as this may gradually affect the blue colour or natural bamboo tone over time.

Dust gently with a soft dry cloth or a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment.

Each Local Spots map is made to order in our Sligo studio, rather than held in large quantities of stock. This helps us make carefully, reduce waste and manage our small workshop space.

Please allow up to 2 weeks for dispatch during our normal production flow.

Your map will be carefully wrapped and presented in an unbleached, recycled cardboard box, ready to give as a gift. We do not include pricing inside the parcel, so it can be sent directly to the recipient.

If your order is a gift, you can leave us a note at checkout with any packing or delivery details.

If you need your map sooner, please contact us before ordering and we’ll let you know what is possible.
