Wow!!! What a great post @Globe_trotter_Ish , with fantastic photos. Especially I love the stair lifts pictures, because I never saw this feature at any place in my country.
Thanks for your great efforts to creating awareness for 
Accessibility.

Muchas gracias @FaridTDF ! Gracias por tus amables palabras ¿Ha visto sillas salvaescaleras tan inclusivas cerca de usted? He usado el traductor de google para escribir en español. Lo siento si no es correcto !

Super enlightening post @Globe_trotter_Ish 
What a great way of inclusion and independence. The photos are revealing a great detail that you have mentioned in the post - working of stairlifts. I have never came across a place having such feature. Really commendable efforts by Castle Howard and thanks a ton to you for sharing this with us.

Hola @Globe_trotter_Ish , por donde yo vivo (Tierra del Fuego), no contamos con muchas escaleras, la mayoría de los edificios públicos cuentan con con rampas. El clima es muy ventoso y no permite la construcción de casas muy altas. Lamentablemente las calles de casi toda la ciudad no son parejas y el desplazamiento en silla de ruedas es complicado. Se esta trabajando de todas maneras en una mayor inclusión.
En el índico lugar que vi este tipo de sillas tan inclusivas ene la provincia de Buenos Aires, al norte de donde yo vivo.
Gracias por usar el traductor, quedo perfecto en español, no es necesario Connect es responsivo , se adapta nuestro idioma y podemos escoger en que lenguaje leer nuestros post.
Saludos desde la Tierra del Fuego, Farid.

I am really surprised to learn of stairlifts. For a long time, I have thought of how PwDs could access old buildings with stairs. I think whoever invented this has done a great job.
@Globe_trotter_Ish thank you for sharing this. Learning about stairlifts on Connect is quite fulfilling. More people now know about and can add them on Google Maps. I am tagging @TraciC and @Sashabg to know if they have seen stairlifts in the U.S.

Oh yes, I sometimes see stairlifts in some older buildings but not too often, unfortunately. I feel like they’re more common in museums but can’t recall the last time I’ve seen this aside from a doctor’s office in Brooklyn! Thanks for sharing, @Globe_trotter_Ish and @EmekaUlor !

In the 1920s C.C. Crispen invented what we would now recognise as a stairlift – he called this invention the ‘inclinator’. Crispencreated the device to help his sick friend move up and down the stairs. Named the “Inclinator,” Crispen placed his invention on display in Philadelphia in 1924. So the invention is quite an old one @EmekaUlor but may be not popular until recent times ! I guess now as people are becoming more and more aware about inclusiveness in general , the inventions are now put to use ! I am glad that we are together creating more and more awareness regarding accessibility through Connect and Maps ! I hope such posts will create more awareness among other local guides too so that they too can look out for something that surprised them in terms of accessibility ! Thanks @EmekaUlor and @TraciC for all the encouragement and sharing your stairlift related thoughts with us ! Your appreciation really makes us go beyond and search and write on topics never written before ! Thanks once again !

Great post @Globe_trotter_Ish ! It’s amazing and so nice that such a place has stairlifts, it must have been so nice to suddenly see it! Thank you for sharing with us how accessibility was implemented here and reminding the community about staitlifts or accessible elevators

I have seen this in pictures but surprisingly not in real life yet!! I am intrigued by how simple or complex stairlifts can be. I have seen pictures of some with many features while others a simple lift with a chair.
Thank you for this article @Globe_trotter_Ish with beautiful images!
