St. Michael's Mount in Cornwall
St. Michael's Mount in Cornwall is an island for sixteen hours a day but during low tide visitors can walk to the mount via a three tenths of a mile long cobblestoned causeway. In the year 495, local fishermen saw a vision of St. Michael the Archangel standing on the mount. The island became the location for a monastery and a destination for pilgrims. Local legend says a giant once lived on the island and that a farm boy named Jack killed him. The Island was given to the National Trust in 1954 with a condition that the St. Aubyn family and their decedents could continue living there for the next nine-hundred ninety-nine years.
