Afternoon visit to Cirencester's Corinium Museum. Lots of interesting artefacts, including large Roman mosaics found in and around Cirencester. The museum takes you through the history of Cirencester from pre-Roman up to the present day. The facilities are all wheelchair accessible with plenty of room to manoeuvre. There is a lift between the two floors and a spacious accessible toilet.
Disabled Access In and Around
Good
The museum is on a level access from Park Street through an automatic door. The routes around the museum worth easily navigated in my wheelchair. There were a number of touch-screens to provide extra details of different exhibits. These were fine if you were standing up and looking down directly above. However, though I could position my wheelchair next to the screens unfortunately the angle of the screens meant the images were not viewable.
Accessible facilities: Lift to all areas, Step-free entrance

The Corinium Museum is close to the Market Square in the centre of Cirencester. There are a number of car parks in Cirencester. We parked in the Forum car park which is the other side of the Market Square.
