List of extreme points of the United Kingdom - wikipedia List of extreme points of the United Kingdom 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 ). This article does not include references to the Channel Islands because they are Crown dependencies, not constituent parts of the United Kingdom.
