MUSEUM CAR PARKS
We use Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) at all of our Museum-owned car parks. We record the registration numbers of vehicles entering and leaving a site and calculate a charge based on the length of stay. The tariff is £1 per hour up to a maximum of £5. There is a 30 minute free period to allow pick-up & drop-off.
You can pay for parking with a debit/credit card at machines on-site or online within 48 hours of your visit.
All vehicles entering these car parks will be subject to charges including motorbikes, coaches, blue badge holders & campervans.
Charges apply 24 hours a day except at Coalport China Museum where free overnight parking is available (6pm-8am).
Our car park charges are managed by Park with Ease. Park with Ease will enforce parking charges and will issue fixed penalty notices in the event of non-payment.
LOCAL AUTHORITY CAR PARKS
Museum of The Gorge, Station Yard, the Square, Waterloo Street and Dale End Park car parks are Local Authority Pay & Display car parks and a separate ticket is required.
Motorhome parking is available at all museums, excluding Broseley Pipeworks.
