Cutty Sark Pavilion
Time Out says
Friendly warning! We're working hard to be accurate. But these are unusual times, so please check that venues remain open.
The Cutty Sark - the world's only remaining tea clipper - was badly damaged by fire – apparently caused by a vacuum cleaner overheating – in May 2007 and is closed for essential conservation work until early 2010, when it will be raised above visitors for the first time. A pavilion, set up in April 2007, explains the work being carried out and allows visitors to see it in action via a large observation window. One of the main problems facing the Cutty Sark is corrosion to the iron framework caused by sea salt. Visitors who make a donation will get a pinch of salt in return as a symbol of the salt they are helping to remove. A small souvenir shop is also on site.
