A historic Glasgow museum ship has landed £1.8million of funding to keep it afloat on the River Clyde as a testament to the city's shipbuilding heritage for years to come.
The funding comes as the 126-year-old Tall Ship Glenlee celebrates 30 years back in Glasgow and will support essential inspections and repairs needed to help ensure the ship remains a landmark of cultural importance for the city for another three decades, and beyond.
Currently berthed alongside the Riverside Museum, the vessel is the only steel square-rigged cargo vessel remaining in the whole of the UK, and one of just five such Clydebuilt vessels remaining in the world.
