Rock Outcrop in Isles of Scilly
The Nag's Head is a wonderfully shaped outcrop found on St Agnes, Isles of Scilly.
The Cornish antiquarian William Borlase believed this outcrop was one of the places where the Druids would have performed their gruesome rites, and I'm sure myself that various people's over various times would have seen this outcrop as a special place (even amongst all the other wonderfully shaped outcrops nearby)
