Extreme points of the United Kingdom

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of the extreme points of the United Kingdom: the points that are farther north, south, east or west than any other location. Traditionally the extent of the island of Great Britain has stretched "from Land's End to John o' Groats" (that is, from the extreme southwest of England to the far northeast of Scotland). Extreme points of the British Isles lying outside the United Kingdom (namely in Jersey and the Republic of Ireland) are also included here for convenience.
