The Plough Arts Centre has full disabled access to the ground floor foyer, box office, cafe-bar, theatre/cinema (stalls), meeting room and workshop. 

Please contact us if you have any access requirements so that we can make sure your visit to The Plough is as easy as possible!

Access to the upstairs gallery is available via a lift from the foyer. 

The Auditorium

Access to the balcony can be gained from the lift via the gallery but there are 16 steps (8 down and 8 up) between the gallery and the balcony.

There is a single aisle up the centre of the auditorium, but not up the sides.
