Hi Shawn, We have level access by lift to the Basement Gallery only. This does not include the shop, or the Entrance Gallery and Top Gallery which contains our sundial collection. We are working hard to fix this and hope that in the coming years we will be able to provide lift access to all floors. We have digital 360s views of the Museum available on our website so that you can see the Galleries from your home and we also stock a number of our products online. I'm afraid I cannot post weblinks in this reply but you can access these areas from our website. Please call us on 01865 277293 is you have any questions. Best wishes, Robyn Public Engagement Officer
