Accessibility

New Lanark Visitor Centre welcomes everyone.

However, the location of the historic Village in a steep-sided valley beside the Falls of Clyde, though picturesque, is not ideal terrain for wheelchair-users and visitors with limited or restricted mobility. These guides should help you to plan your visit – please get in touch if we can help with arrangements to allow you to enjoy a safe and comfortable visit.

NEW LANARK ACCESSIBILITY GUIDE

The main Visitor Centre car park is located above New Lanark just off the main access road. From here it is approximately 5-10 minutes’ walk down to the Village. Visitors who may have difficulty in negotiating the footpath to and from the car park may park in the Village but, where possible, the driver should drop off (and pick up) passengers and return to park in the main car park for the duration of the visit.

ONLINE ACCESSIBILITY GUIDE: IN ASSOCIATION WITH VISIT SCOTLAND

New Lanark Visitor Centre welcomes everyone. However, the location of the historic Village in a steep-sided valley beside the Falls of Clyde, though picturesque, is not ideal terrain for wheelchair-users and visitors with limited or restricted mobility. All our buildings are over 200 years old, and were not originally designed to function as a Visitor Centre. This guide should help you to plan your visit whether you are an individual visitor or a group organiser. For groups with wheelchair users, or others with restricted mobility, arrangements should be made in advance to allow us to plan a visit for you that can be enjoyed safely and comfortably
