The Secret London website tells us:
‘Pirate Ships’
These two ships outside Tobacco Dock are replicas set up as a pirate attraction. The 'Three Sisters' was a 330-ton ship built at Blackwall Yard in 1788 which traded in tobacco and spices with the East & West Indies. The ‘Sea Lark’ was an American merchant schooner captured by the Royal Navy during the Anglo-American War in 1812-4.
