Amber — some concerns

Independent assessment

Public galleries and core facilities are well supported, but lift limits and extensively stepped historic tours require advance planning.

Why this rating

Platform and internal lifts serve the public galleries, with mobility parking, wheelchairs, Changing Places, accessible toilets, hearing loops, quiet sessions and free carer admission. The front lift has a stated 200kg combined limit and heavier wheelchairs need an alternative entrance, while behind-the-scenes routes can include numerous stairs and a 300-step spiral section.
