North Carr Reflection

North Carr is the last remaining Scottish lightship.
She is 101 feet (31 m) in length, 25 feet (7.6 m) in beam and 250 tons.

The purpose of the vessel was to warn mariners by sight, light or sound of the dangers of the North Carr rocks which are situated 1.7 miles off Fife Ness at the turning point for vessels entering the Forth from the North and bound for the Tay. The North Carr is currently berthed in the Victoria Dock, Dundee, awaiting restoration as an exhibition space.
