We welcome all visitors to our places; we also welcome assistance dogs. Most properties have a good degree of access, and we are committed to developing and promoting inclusive access solutions that are creative and sensitive to the surroundings. One example of this is the new garden lift at Washington Old Hall in the North East. Washington Old Hall’s Garden Lift Washington Old Hall’s garden is on different levels, accessing all areas was difficult for visitors with mobility problems. Lead by the Friends of Washington Old Hall, and involving property and regional staff, schools and community groups, a major project has recently been completed, including the installation 14013_TEXT_p01-13:4919_prelims_new_v1 13/11/09 20:17 Page 4 4 of a self-controlled external lift, and improved surfacing of the lower ‘formal’ garden, from gravel to paving. This Access Project, which was funded by The Friends, a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund, and using other local funds, is now fully complete, with the lower garden having recovered well, and the accessibility being positively recognised and acknowledged by visitors to the property. Wheelchair users, mobility scooter users, and families with buggies, all have welcomed the chance to avoid steps! The first external garden lift to be installed at a National Trust property: a proud claim by the ancestral home of George Washington! Nick Dolan, Property Manager & Kate Gardner, House Manager We do recommend telephoning a property ahead of a visit to obtain any specific details about access which you might require Membership: Membership of the National Trust offers free admission to over 300 historic houses, more than 180 gardens and most National Trust car parks. Some of our places are managed on our behalf by other organisations and they may charge members to park. It also allows free admission to places owned by the National Trust for Scotland. For further information regarding membership please contact our Membership Department, or visit our website, (please see back cover for contact details). Admission Our admission policy admits the essential companion, or carer, of a disabled visitor free of charge, on request, while the normal admission charge applies to the disabled visitor. To save having to ‘request’ a companion’s free entry an Admit One Card 14013_TEXT_p01-13:4919_prelims_new_v1 13/11/09 20:32 Page 5 can be issued. This card is issued in the name of the disabled 5 visitor, which means they are not restricted to taking the same companion or carer each time. Although an Admit One Card is not needed, having one does make the process easier, and quicker. For further details or to obtain an Admit One Cards contact the Membership Department Powered Mobility Vehicles (PMVs) Self-drive, and volunteer- driven, powered vehicles are available at some larger gardens and parks. Details of the relevant places and the vehicle types are listed under the individual property entry in this book. Some of our places have only one or two PMVs so, to save disappointment, it can be advisable to phone the property beforehand to check availability, and to enquire if they operate a booking system. Wherever possible, the Trust admits to its buildings users of powered wheelchairs and similar small vehicles subject to the physical limitations of the individual building, and also to temporary constraints which may apply on the day. Please telephone the property in advance to check. 14013_TEXT_p01-13:4919_prelims_new_v1 13/11/09 20:34 Page 6 6 The Trust strongly discourages the use of your own self-drive three-wheeler vehicles, and other pavement vehicles, and powered wheelchairs at its outdoor places because of the uneven and changing terrain. Visitors with Visual impairments The majority of our properties offer Braille and large print guides. A free copy of a Braille guide can be requested in advance of a visit. Many properties also provide large-print and tape guides; these are mentioned in the individual property entries. Some of our properties are also developing audio files which can be downloaded from our website before a visit. The Trust’s Members’ Magazine, and the Access Guide are produced on tape and CD by SoundTalking. If you are a member and would like to be added to the mailing list for the magazine, please contact [email protected] or phone 01435 862737 direct. Both members and non-members can request the Access Guide We continue to develop Sensory trails. Where properties have provided us with information on sensory experiences these can be found under the ‘Other features’ section in individual property entries. Sensory trails give visitors a chance to experience a properties in different ways. These can include particular sounds and scents, also any items that can be touched. Sensory trails can improve the visitor experience for all visitors. Speke Hall in Liverpool has been working with their local Mencap group, and other disability groups on their new sensory trail. 14013_TEXT_p01-13:4919_prelims_new_v1 7/11/09 00:12 Page 7 Speke Hall – Sensory Trail 7 In 2004, MENCAP Liverpool set up the Access to Heritage Project (AHP) to look at how stories and interpretation at historic venues could be made more accessible for people with learning disabilities. In 2008, Speke Hall worked with the AHP to create an exciting new sensory trail for the ground floor of the Hall. We developed the idea using three artists specialising in sound, smell and touch, together with twenty five adults with learning disabilities who make up the project’s Forum. Consulting people with learning disabilities was key to the successful development of the Sensory Trail. The result was the creation of five new sensory pieces of art: including a copy of Mrs Beeton’s ‘Household Management & Cook Book’ which releases scents of herbs and spices when the pages are opened and, a seemingly traditional box that opens to reveal a tactile model of the ornate plaster ceiling. The trail is proving successful at bringing the history of the house to life, for all of our supporters. Anne Inskip, Liverpool Properties House Steward E Visitors who are Deaf or hard of hearing Induction loops have become increasingly available at our properties. Some properties, like Little Moreton Hall, have got an enhanced hearing system for their guided tours, which can also be used by non-hearing aid users. 14013_TEXT_p01-13:4919_prelims_new_v1 13/11/09 20:37 Page 8 8 D Assistance Dogs UK (ADUK): Registered assistance dogs are welcome at our places, as long as they are in harness during their visit. Assistance dog puppies in training are also welcome to many outdoor places, but must be kept on harness and under strict control; it is advisable to telephone in advance if any doubt exists. Cancer and Bio-detection Dogs This year I was delighted to be able to invite one of the countries first diabetes hypo alert dogs along to Washington Old Hall, where I had gone to look at their new garden lift. Tinker has been trained by Cancer and Bio-detection Dogs to alert his owner Paul to the onset of low blood sugar levels (hypoglycaemia). These specially trained dogs detect impending hypos and respond to their owners needs accordingly. Many people with diabetes have little or no hypo awareness, this can be very distressing and if not treated immediately can be life threatening 14013_TEXT_p01-13:4919_prelims_new_v1 13/11/09 20:38 Page 9 Paul told me that having Tinker hypo alert trained has 9 changed his life.

  • The Friends of the Blackden Trust Present
    The Friends of the Blackden Trust present: The Old Stones: Megalithic Sites of Britain and the North West by the author of ’The Old Stones’, Andy Burnham 3Pm 14th March 2020 at Terra Nova School, Nr Jodrell Bank CW48BT Andy Burnham is the lead author of the book 'The Old Stones' and along with other contributors, the instigator of the huge Megalithic Portal Web Resource which he founded in 2001. The Old Stones is the most comprehensive and thought provoking field guide ever published covering the iconic standing stones and prehistoric places of Britain and Ireland and has been awarded the Current Archaeology Book of the Year 2019. Andy will be signing copies of the book at this event. Andy's talk will cover some of the fascinating themes, mysteries and new discoveries surrounding these ancient prehistoric sites, including megaliths and their connection to the oldest Neolithic Halls in Britain; Folklore of a Dartmoor stone circle; Ancient trackways and the evidence for long distance journeys to Stonehenge and seasonal feasting at Durrington Walls; Also, huge wooden monuments the size of four football fields and how archaeologists think they were used. Although the talk covers megalithic and prehistoric sites and new discoveries all over the UK, there are local sites that Andy will discuss. These include: The Bridestones (The few remaining stones of this once great monument still stand along the line of the Cheshire / Staffordshire border); The Bullstones, found high above the town of Macclesfield on the southern boundary of a moor called Cessbank Common; The Rostherne 'Celtic Head' (This supposed ‘Celtic Head’ lies to the rear of Rostherne Church near Knutsford.) This is a must see lecture for anyone who has a passion for prehistory, standing stones, archaeology or the folklore associated with ancient sites.
