Gugh

The tombolo looking from St. Agnes towards Gugh

Gugh (/ˈɡjuː/; Cornish:Keow, meaning "hedge banks") could be described as the sixth inhabited island of the Isles of Scilly, but is usually included with St Agnes with which it is joined by a sandy tombolo known as "The Bar" when exposed at low tide. The island is only about 1 km (½ mi) long and about 0.5 km (¼ mi wide, with the highest point, Kittern Hill at 34 m (112 ft). The geology consists of Hercynian granite with shallow podzolic soils on the higher ground and deeper sandy soils on the lower ground. The former Gugh farm is just north of the neck across the middle of the island between the two hills. The two houses were designed and built in the 1920s by Mr Charles Hamlet Cooper. The name is often mispronounced as "Goo", "Guff" or even "Gogh".
