Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Muesum




The Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Muesum

Anyone For Tennis!














This muesum is wonderful for anyone who "Loves" tennis, the muesum is fully accesible, and the shop has a accessible toilet.


The muesum is down stairs and yes they have a lift that is big enough for wheelchair or scooter
















They have thought of everything, the staff are very friendly and nice, they have audio guides with headphones, but they have not left out the hard of hearing because3 they have got the same audio guide in a hand held computer that is touch screen (about the size of an MP3 player) that has a BSL interpter signing to you












photo of what it looks like, the signage is very clear and crisp and easy to read, as you can see from this photo, I went to check out the access and they let me in as a child.








The muesum has a lot of seats so
















ou can rest and read the labels on the different items on display







they also have a 200c film with very good speical effects and great mus




please note the benches are quite low, but the film is great it last 8 minute, as well as the film they have the "ghost" of McEnroe's
in his old changing room.




























photo of old rackets and outfits they used to wear a few years ago....










As well as the muesum there is a small exhibtion about modern day Wimbledon and they hhave a sample of the new seating that they will have in Centre Court.









they are ok but not perfect, because they flip up and you need to pull them down with one hand before you are able to sit on it.








You must be ready for "Juice" now I was anyway, the cafe is near the muesum but not in it, the cafe is up a flight of steps but there is a ramp that goes round the back somewhere, the cafe is very nice and bright






It has it's own accessible toilet that has a rader key lock
