The resemblance between this small island and the French Mont Saint-Michel is striking. And with good reason: in the 11th century, Edward the Confessor bequeathed it to the Benedictine monks who had built the Norman abbey we know today. As early as the5th century, a church was erected here after fishermen had a vision of Saint Michael. In the Middle Ages, pilgrims flocked here and it also served as a shelter for the Duke of Oxford during the War of the Roses, suffering a 26-week siege. It can be reached on foot at low tide or by boat at high tide.

With my opinion, that is not really worth the trip, excluding the car park and the boat that you must pay at high tide.
