Accessibility information
Unfortunately, due to the fact that some of the textiles are located in parts of the building that can only be reached by stairs, this tour is unsuitable for wheelchair users. Bradford Cathedral was largely built in the 15th century, on a steep hillside, and has Victorian and 20th century additions that include a number of sets of steps and narrow spaces that are unsuitable for ramps. We apologise that this particular tour isn't accessible for wheelchair users and we are working to make this challenging building more accessible.
