Gugh (/ˈɡjuː/; Cornish: Keow, meaning "hedge banks") could be described as the sixth inhabited island of the Isles of Scilly, but is usually included with St Agnes with which it is joined by a sandy tombolo known as "The Bar" when exposed at low tide. The island is only about 1 km (0.62 mi) long and about 0.5 km (0.31 mi) wide, with the highest point, Kittern Hill at 34 m (112 ft). The geology consists of Hercynian granite with shallow podzolic soils on the higher ground and deeper sandy soils on the lower ground. The former Gugh farm is just north of the neck across the middle of the island between the two hills. The two houses were designed and built in the 1920s by Charles Hamlet Cooper. The name is often mispronounced as "Goo", "Guff" or even "Gogh".

Según el censo de población de 2001 Gugh tiene una población de tres personas, lo que la convierte en la más pequeña de las islas pobladas. Durante la marea baja, Gugh es una península de Saint Agnes, una isla más grande al oeste.​ Desde 1976 Gugh es un Site of Special Scientific Interest en su totalidad. (es)

  • Gugh (kornisch Keow) ist eine Insel der Scilly-Inseln. Das Eiland ist etwa einen Kilometer lang und einen halben Kilometer breit. An seinem höchsten Punkt Kittern Hill liegt Gugh 34 m über dem Meeresspiegel. Die Insel ist durch den nur gut 60 Meter breiten Tombolo The Bar, der The Cove im Süden vom Forth Conger im Norden trennt, mit St. Agnes verbunden. Der Granit, aus dem die Insel hauptsächlich besteht, ist im Zuge der Variszischen Orogenese entstanden. (de)

  • Gugh (cornico Keow, file di siepi) si potrebbe descrivere come la sesta isola abitata dell'arcipelago delle Isole Scilly, ma è solitamente conteggiata assieme a St Agnes, alla quale è unita da un tombolo di sabbia detto "The Bar" durante le basse maree. L'isola è lunga solamente 1 km e larga circa 0,5; la massima elevazione è Kittern Hill, alta 34 m. Dal punto di vista geologico è costituita da granito ercinico con sottili suoli podzolici nei terreni più elevati e suoli sabbiosi più profondi nei terreni più bassi. L'antica fattoria di Gugh si trova immediatamente a nord della strozzatura al centro dell'isola, tra le due colline; le due case furono progettate e costruite negli anni venti del XX sec. da un certo Cooper.
