The <a href="/wiki/Northern_Lighthouse_Board" title="Northern Lighthouse Board">Northern Lighthouse Board</a> recommended the building of a lighthouse at St Abb's Head after the sinking of the <i>Martello</i> on Carr Rock in 1857. The lighthouse was designed and built by the brothers <a href="/wiki/David_Stevenson_(engineer)" title="David Stevenson (engineer)">David Stevenson</a> and <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Stevenson" title="Thomas Stevenson">Thomas Stevenson</a> and assisted navigation before and after sight of the <a href="/wiki/Inchcape" title="Inchcape">Bell Rock</a> and <a href="/wiki/Isle_of_May" title="Isle of May">Isle of May</a> lights disappeared from view. The light began service on 24 February 1862 and initially used oil to generate its light, it was converted to <a href="/wiki/Incandescence" class="mw-redirect" title="Incandescence">incandescent</a> power in 1906 and to electricity in 1966 and finally automated in 1993. Before automation the lighthouse was staffed by three full-time keepers whose duties included keeping detailed weather records. The lighthouse has two km of single-track tarmaced road leading to it from the main road near St Abbs village, however it is suggested by the National Trust for Scotland that it is only used by disabled visitors, and there is limited parking. Visitors can walk to the Head where the lighthouse's buildings, though still in good repair, are not open to the public. A <a href="/wiki/Foghorn" title="Foghorn">foghorn</a> was established at the Head in 1876, being the first audible fog signal in Scotland. The original foghorn was driven by <a href="/wiki/Hot_air_engine" title="Hot air engine">hot air engines</a> before being replaced by oil driven ones in 1911 and then by <a href="/wiki/Diesel_engine" title="Diesel engine">diesel engines</a> in December 1955. The fog signal was discontinued in 1987 although the horn is still in place and can be reached at the edge of the cliffs by a railed path from the lighthouse.<sup id="cite_ref-NLB_3-0"
