Entrance Courtyard & Kinetic Clock Jefferson Office


Image of the Courtyard with Café tables 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.

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.
