Site of the North Port of Montrose, Angus
The narrow gap between the buildings at the northern end of Montrose High Street and its junction with Murray Street is popularly known as the “Bottleneck”. In the photo, this location is marked by traffic lights but, in medieval times, it was the North Port where a gate controlled the entry of people and goods into the burgh. The gate was removed in the 1780s as it had become an encumbrance to traffic.

Montrose High Street, Montrose, Angus
It is thought that Montrose received its first charter from David I'st of Scotland who reigned between 1124-53 and that it became a Royal Burgh around 1130. The layout of Montrose is one of the best examples of early burgh planning in Scotland with the long and broad High Street being particularly prominent. Many of the older houses were built with their gable ends facing the High Street and the sea so as to give some protection from strong, east winds. The demonym for Montrosians is " Gable Enders."
