A HISTORY OF DISABILITY: FROM 1050 TO THE PRESENT DAY

http://goo.gl/cJCYhG

Disability in Time and Place reveals how disabled peoples' lives are integral to the heritage all around us.  From leper chapels built in the 1100s to protests about accessibility in the 1980s, the built environment is inextricably linked to the stories of disabled people, hidden and well-known.  This section serves as an invitation to those interested in disability or social history to explore what the historic environment has to offer. All the content has been translated into British Sign Language. You can also find out more information aboutbuildings highlighted in these pages, some of which are open to the public.
