This article generates hCard microformats, to make place-names and locations parsable by computers, either acting automatically to index articles, or via a user's browser tool, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. Within the hCard is a Geo microformat, to make the coordinates parsable, so they can be, say, located on a map, or sent to a GPS unit. See also Wikipedia's microformat project. hCard uses HTML classes including: "adr", "county-name", "fn", "label", "locality", "nickname", "note", "org", "region" & "vcard". Geo is produced by {{ coord}}, and has classes: "geo", "latitude" & "longitude". Please do not rename or remove these classes. When giving coordinates, please don't be overly precise. |
With not much in the way of proof other than their words many yrs ago, I can't really justify making an edit on the main page, but I thought it worthy of mention in the hope that someone may know more? Thanks Codeye ( talk) 07:00, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
Many thanks for that! I actually hadn't thought to actually search Wikipedia for Bardon Hill or the quarry. Apologies for my stupidity there. ;-) Codeye ( talk) 23:10, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

, but there are a few in British dependent territories. One of the largest is Mount Belinda 1,370 m (4,490 ft) at 58°25′S 26°23′W / 58.417°S 26.383°W on Montagu Island in the Weddell Sea off the coast of Antarctica. It is within the British Overseas Territory, the South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands. Although, Mount Michael 805 m (2,641 ft) at 57°48′S 26°28′W / 57.800°S 26.467°W on Saunders Island has been active as recently as 2005. The 700 m (2,297 ft) diameter summit crater is thought to possibly contain an active lava lake, one of only a handful in the world.
The Wrekin, a very obvious volcano in Shropshire. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.140.247.199 ( talk) 22:16, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
Is it worth at the very least adding a link to the Cornubian batholith in southwest England? I'm not sure whether there were ever active volcanoes in the area - the batholith article talks about Permian plutons at Dartmoor, Bodmin Moor and several other sites, so there may not have been surface eruptions, but a link in the "see also" section might be worthwhile. Grutness... wha? 13:47, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
This list is problematic. The inclusion criteria are not obvious. Most of the listed examples are deeply eroded volcanic centres, rather than volcanoes. Other are just outcrops of volcanic rocks that are no doubt linked to volcanoes but should they really be on this list? Perhaps this could be renamed to List of volcanic centres in the United Kingdom? I removed Brent Tor, as that is just a hill made up of volcanic rock, and I'm checking through others. Comments?
