We begin our tour by entering The Rum Story from Lowther Street, a road containing many of Whitehaven's finest Georgian buildings.
Emerging from a short, covered walkway we find ourselves in the Courtyard where Café tables are available under a glass roof. Balcony tables also offer a wonderful opportunity for people-watching or for keeping an eye on the famous Rum Story Kinetic Clock.
Directly ahead is the main ticket office and entrance to the Rum Story. Beside this, our Gift Shop offers a wonderful selection of unusual gifts and the full range of our world famous Jefferson's Rum.
To our right the Kinetic Clock ticks away mechanically representing the story
of rum from sugar cane to bottle. Also to our right is a doorway
leading to our next stop, the Jefferson
Clerks' Office. |
