Lift
The Museum is equipped with a lift that allows visitors to
access all floors and galleries.
Toilets and baby-changing
The Museum has public toilets that include baby-changing
facilities and disabled toilet facilities.
Buggies & push-chairs
Buggies & push-chairs are welcome around the Museum,
alternatively they can be left at reception upon arrival.
Car-parking
There is limited on-site parking facilities for visitors, apart
from disabled visitors who can park on the hard standing and access
the front door without encountering any steps. If the Museum car
park is full we recommend either the Trinity Street pay &
display car park behind the Museum (evenings & weekends only)
or the Queensgate shopping centre car park (3 minutes walk
away).
Cyclists
The Museum has three bicycle racks on the front of the building,
and is only a short distance from Peterborough's 'Green Wheel'
cycle path.
Refreshments
Although the Museum has no café inside the building, it is a
couple of minutes walk from many cafés and shops in the town
centre. We do offer refreshments during some of our weekend events
and school holidays.
Security
For security reasons the public areas of the Museum are covered
by CCTV cameras which do film throughout. We request that any large
bags are left at reception upon arrival for security reasons. We
reserve the right to refuse admission to any visitor on grounds of
safety or security, and to ask to search any bags on request.
Many of Peterborough’s most popular cultural and sporting
facilities are part of Vivacity, an independent,
not-for-profit organisation with charitable status.

the trust on the Vivacity website.
