John o' Groats

John o' Groats is a village 2.5 mi northeast of Canisbay, Caithness, in the far north of Scotland. John o' Groats lies on Great Britain's northeastern tip, and is popular with tourists as one end of the longest distance between two inhabited British points on the mainland, with Land's End in Cornwall lying 876 mi southwest, but it is not the northernmost point of mainland Great Britain, which is the nearby Dunnet Head.

John o' Groats is 690 mi from London, 280 mi from Edinburgh, 6 mi from the Orkney Isles, and 2,200 mi from the North Pole. It is 4+1⁄4 mi from the uninhabited Island of Stroma.
