From the Harper Collins Bartholomew database of placenames we can provide a
list of 486 islands within the United Kingdom. If you would let me know what
your reader is wanting we will see how we are able to help.

Subject: Islands of the British Isles
We have received a request for a list of all the islands of the British
Isles
(without going into too much argument of what constitutes an island, but to
include islands of inhabitable size, whether currently inhabited or not,
islands
separate from the mainland only at high tide, and islands joined to the
mainland
or one another by bridges or causeways). Any suggestions will be gratefully
received, whether the answer is obvious or impossible.
