25 years ago today, the legendary Cutty Sark Tall Ships descended on Leith Docks. Tens of thousands flocked to the shore each day in July 1995 to see the Tall Ships in all their glory. On the last night of the event, approximately 150,000 people watched a fireworks display at the Docks, to say farewell to the mighty vessels. Were you there? Do you remember the visit?
