The linthouse Shipyard building, which is now called ‘Cathedral of Engineering’, is home to a collection of vessels including 1940s Clyde Puffer MV Spartan. It is open to visitors who like to immerse themselves in the life of a vessel that was formerly a lifeline for Scottish islands and coastal regions. To take some refreshment during your visit, you can stop by Puffers Café, and savour its well-cooked wholesome food, and high-quality drinks.
