Overview

The willingness of staff to help and the thought given to signposting and general access was excellent. Things like large print guides to the exhibition room content were very good - useful to wheelchair users who may have difficulty reading exhibit labels as well as those with sight impairments.

Transport & Parking

Couldn't get an closer if you tried! Parking was right by the front door.

Access

Access for mobility impaired visitors is via a ramp to the side of the stone steps. It's a gentle gradient with handrails. The front door is a split style double door which is quite heavy. The attendant at the door was happy to assist.

Toilets

One accessible toilet is located on the lower level adjacent to the cafe. A lift takes you from the other floors down to that level and is large and deep enough for a couple of wheelchairs, it has audio feedback and tactile control buttons. The accessible toilet has a large doorway and space to manoeuvre.

Staff

Staff were very helpful and welcoming. Offering information and help as required.
