The "Loth Lorien", taking part in the parade of Sale, during the Tall Ships Festival, Greenwich.
The Loth Lorien was built in Norway and originally sailed as a herring lugger. In 1989, she was bought by her current owner who spent two years converting her into a two-masted lugger with modern rigging and furnishing her with a luxurious interior including a saloon and bar. After a further transformation into a three-masted schooner, the Loth Loriën had four new square sails added to her foremast in 2009 to create a stunning barquentine. She is named after the Elvish kingdom in Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings. The Loth Lorien was built in Norway and originally sailed as a herring lugger.
