003 | "In 1818 an Act of Parliament was obtained for further enlarging & improving the harbour. A south pier was erected of the same length as that on the north and since that time viz. 1830, a middle pier broader than and in many respects superior to either of the other two, has been erected, inside of which vessels lie in perfect safety. The area thus enclosed as a harbour is upwards of 6 Scotch acres and is of easy access having about 6 feet of water at the piers head at low tide and 20 feet at Spring tide." Pratts Buchan p.
