Scurdie Ness lighthouse guards and defines the entrance to Montrose harbour from a position near the tip of the promontory of the same name, which projects markedly into the North Sea on the south side of the mouth of the combined rivers North and South Esk. It was built by engineers D and T Stevenson as part of the programme instigated following the Baillie Hamilton report, and was first lit in 1870. It was temporarily repainted in black during the second world war, and was automated in 1987.
