Lonely Planet review for Cutty Sark

This Greenwich landmark, the last of the great clipper ships to sail between China and England in the 19th century, was undergoing £25-million repair work in 2007 when a fire damaged about 50% of the ‘fabric’ of the vessel. Luckily half of the ship’s furnishings and equipment, including the mast, had been removed for conservation. At the time of writing, repairs costing an additional £10 million were under way and the Cutty Sark will rise, phoenix-like, from the ashes any day now.

    We saw the Cutty Sark briefly when we were in Greenwich the year before the fire. I'm not sure what if anything you can see today, but I hope to get another chance to check it out when it's re-opened after the current conservation project is complete.
