Because the entrance channel (of the Tay) was altering with the slow movement of sandbanks, the lower (outer) tower on Buddon Ness was moved bodily 160 ft (48.7m) to the NE between 5th May and 4th June 1884 so as to form a pair of leading marks on the new alignment with the High Light (N53SW 21); the Keepers' Houses (NO53SW 55.01) were left in their original location.
