Courtyard paving stones and ramps near arcades

Surfaces are a mix of paving stones and carpet. Approaches and the main courtyard are mostly level; earlier mornings offer calmer sensory conditions.

Approaches & Surfaces

Level entries; watch for stone joints.
Interior carpets soft; avoid trip hazards on thresholds.

Rest Areas & Seating

Benches in the square; arcade shade.
Tea stops at nearby cafes.
