The Cutty Sark, which was devastated by fire in May 2007, is set to open next summer.  The ship was undergoing a restoration project at the time of the fire, which has now added £10m to the project’s original cost of £25m.  The project will see the ship raised 3 meters above its current position and suspended so that visitors can walk underneath to see the ship’s hull.  There will also be a glass canopy meeting the ship at the waterline and covering the dry dosck with 1,000sq m space for events.
