Overall Rating
Excellent
Aerospace Bristol is modern, spacious museum of aviation. It's main attraction is that it has the last Concorde ever to fly amongst its exhibits. In addition to Concorde though it has a separate set of galleries covering the history of aviation and Bristol's part in it. It is very accessible although completely non ambulant people will not be able to actually board Concorde.
Disabled Access In and Around
Excellent
The venue is very spacious and mainly on one level with a good surface, Most (but not all) doors open automatically. In the Concorde hanger there is a lift to the upper level and a lift up to the actual Concorde boarding point. Wheelchair user will not be able to go aboard though - it is simply too narrow.
Accessible facilities: Lift to all areas, Step-free entrance, Seating at regular intervals, Step-free access to most areas

Additional Information
This is a very good, very accessible museum. The history pf aviation section is very interesting. As for the Concorde hangar, even if you are unable to board the plane itself you can move under it and up close to it. It's not cheap, it cost me over £20 to get in, but in my opinion it is worth it.
