Access guidance
- Our main entrance is on Akeman Street and has eight steps. Our schools entrance is on Park Street and is step free. Find out about parking, distances, surface texture and more access information on our How to get to the Museum page. We provide wheelchair and buggy access via our Park Street entrance.
- Our historic building has lots of stairs and railings so take care, especially if you're visiting with children. If you require assistance, please ask one of our friendly visitor assistants or a member of the security team who you will find on duty around the Museum.
- We have two sets of male and female toilets and an accessible toilet. All our toilets have adult and child toilet seats attached.
- We welcome support dogs. The water fountain opposite our accessible toilet on the ground floor can be used to refill dog water bottles. Dogs can go to the toilet in our outdoor quad or in our woodland, which is across a small road. We ask that dogs are kept on leads on site. Dogs can be let off the lead in Tring Park, which is a 10-minute walk away. To get to the park, go down the bumpy, narrow path next to our Hastoe Lane Car Park and over the bridge.
- We have hearing loops at our information desk and in our shop, cafe and Rothschild Room. If you need any other assistance during your visit, we're happy to help you. Some of our staff are trained in basic Makaton.
