Sherborne Museum, Dorset

Details

Accessibility

"The main door to the Museum is 33 inches wide. Wheelchair access, however, is limited to the ground floor; unfortunately we are unable to provide a stair lift due to our status as a listed building. There is a touch-screen available on the ground floor for digital access to our photographic archives and images of examples from our collections. A Sensory Trail is being developed to enhance the visits of all those who might benefit from tactile, sensorimotor and proprioceptive experience. Support dogs of all kinds are welcomed. Out of hours visits and personal tours can be arranged by appointment to accommodate all needs. There is a WC for the disabled."
