Accessibility at Winchester Cathedral

• The Cathedral has a variety of measures to ensure equal access in and around the building.

• There are two ramps to gain access into the cathedral. One outside by the main entrance of the cathedral and another by the south door

• There is ramp access to the Gift Shop and Café

• There is stairless access to the grounds and buildings within the inner close (except for the Dean Garnier Garden)

• There are disabled toilets available within the cathedral located in the Fleury building & Café (these also include baby changing facilities) 

• There is a stair lift within the north transept to improve accessibility around the cathedral. However, it is designed for standard wheelchairs and has a weight limit of 250kg (roughly 40 stone).

• There is also a lift within the Kings and Scribes exhibition which makes all 3 floors accessible.

• Due to the age and nature of the building, there are areas that are not considered accessible to those with physical disabilities. These include: 

  • The Crypt that can only be accessed by stairs 

  • The Fisherman’s & Guardian Angels chapels which both have a small step which may create a barrier to entrance 

  • The tower and roof tours which require a general standard of fitness and ability to climb 213 steps
