Best Answer

The most northerly part of the British Isles is Norwick on the Island of Unst, the most northerly of the Shetland Islands. On mainland Scotland (or mainland Great Britain) the most northerly point is Dunnet Head, not as is commonly thought John O'Groats. In the same way the most Southerly point is The Lizard, not Lands End. Perhaps the myths about both are perpetuated by the company that owns both sites!
