Image description: The ship Cutty Sark, Greenwich.

The Cutty Sark is a clipper built in 1869 for Captain John Willis. She spent most of her life in the China tea trade and in transporting wool from Australia. She became involved in Portuguese trade in 1895 (renamed the Ferreira), was restored as a boys' training ship in 1922, towed to London in 1928, and is now a museum.
