London Fire Officers attend Cutty Sark
Famous 19th Century ship Cutty Sark has been damaged in a fire in London.
A small part of deck three and the hull timbers were damaged, however firefighters managed to contain the blaze, London Fire Brigade said.
Twenty firefighters were called to the ship in Greenwich, south-east London, at 07:21 BST and put the fire out within an hour.
In 2007, damage that cost £10m to repair was caused by a blaze while the ship was undergoing a £25m restoration. More on this story - BBC News - Video
