Blog Info

I love Castles, History and Archaeology, If I could have my time again I would train to be a Archaeologist!
I am a keen artist and traveller, I seek adventure however I am also disabled and a dog owner.

So I thought it would be a neat idea to have a blog that I could share some photos of my castle hunting adventures and basic info on these sites from a disabled, dog owning artist!

Cadw Offers Disabled people and there companion Free access to there sites, If you have any problems, attitude or access on this generous offer make sure you contact Cadw so they can improve.

I have only provided basic info as there are enough sites on the net to give you this information.

Tower Of London


We used the tube to get to this site so can not comment about parking, however it is a fair walk from tube to access
with steps down, I had to take many rest stops
 
Admission price is rather steep however if your disabled and have a carer, you get in for a small reduction and your carer
gets in for free.
The staff are very sympathetic to my disability and this made my visit so much more enjoyable
There are plenty of steps but also a good amount of the site on one level.
Great For Rainy days - in fact it rained heavy during our visit.
Staffed, who are friendly and nothing is to much trouble.
Guide Dogs only.
Toilets including disabled ones
A few benches and resting area's
Best Bit - it's such a big site plenty to see and do
